Fuel

[roshe25]

Hi
I am new to this forum.I have just bought a c200 cdi auto my previous car was a freelander td4. I wanted to know where is the best place to fill up with the best diesel at the supermarket or other places.
All help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

The cheapest you can find is usually the best.

Some others have a different opinion...but, with 135,500 miles mine has never faltered on any type of fuel (except the one time I put petrol in!!).

Or check out petrolprices.com to seek out the cheapest stations within a 5 mile radius. As for brand, is there really any difference between fuels, as they all have to comply with certain standards, such as EN590.

I have noticed no difference between the major distributors, such as Shell, Gulf, BP, Texaco and Esso, so picking a brand is a personal preference.

My nearest supermarket with sensibly priced fuel is Asda - never had a problem with it.

I too use Asda on a regular basis, the fuel consumption is the same as BP Esso etc as far as I can see.
