My mechanic recommends BP ultimate which is a little bit more expensive. Can anyone reccomend a garage for low cost BP ultimate?

Ultimate is always expensive. Petrol or diesel?
why not add a additive to get the same result with supermarket fuel, but that has a cost as well

Though if I could get more people updating it it would be much better..0 -
Tracvelling all over Northern Ireland and only using Ultimate Diesel (where I can) I have found that there is not much difference in the price around Belfast or Lisburn....it is cheaper in Coleraine though bu about 5/6p (I paid £1.459 p/l in Coleraine (Millburn Rd) and £1.499 & 1.509 in Belfast & Lisburn this past week....it was £1.559 in Newcastle last night).
If you are buying Ultimate all the time like me then I would recomend getting a Nectar Card....so far I have got nearly £60 in points back this year alone....I do ALOT of miles per year..
On the point of using it I have found that I get roughly 10-13% more MPG out of it compared to standard petrol.....and my car doesnt have to regen itsself very often.0 -
1st question - what's the car/engine? If it doesn't adjust for the higher RON value then it'll be a waste of time/money. Check the owner's handbook to see what type of fuel it says to use.
I used to find that Sainsbury's super unleaded was only 2p more expensive than their standard stuff, which was the cheapest 'premium' fuel I could find.0
