BP Ultimate don't be caught out - I was

Andy Mcl · May 3rd, 2005, 09:55

Went to fill the car the other day at a BP garage near me (not normally used by me) pulled up at the available pump and began to fill - not thinking - came to check the total and was shocked to find the price was 97.9p/litre!!!! It was only then by looking carefully that I realised this was a different diesel!
Now I would be quite happy to buy this fuel if I knew it was different,
All i would say is watch out - don't get caught out. The marketing labels are very poor and small.
As an aside I haven't noticed any difference yet, has anybody else had any experience with this stuff?

Cheers

Lots of people seem to be filling up with the wrong fuel at BP garages. We had a letter at work warning us about filling up there and there have been numerous reports in the media about it. BP certainly needs to label things more clearly.
At least you didnt put petrol in by mistake!
