Ive moved to liverpool recently, went to my local shell filling station, almost had a heart attack when i got there..... V Power £125.9
Indiemike - that wasn't by any chance the Shell Southbound on the A565 Derby Road by the Vauxhall garage was it? They always charge much more for V-Power than the garages on the other side of that road. Robbing swines took £10 off me before I noticed their outrageous price a while back.
I now stick to the ones Northbound - they're much cheaper. And they've had no shortage of V-Power over the past few weeks - I've used enough of it filling up before I bound back and forth over the Cat and Fiddle road until it goes all SPECS average speed on us.
The shortage might be something to do with the refinery though - we use tanker loads of Shell mineral oils at work and some of the grades have been in very short supply recently...
