About this data
- Prices come from the UK Government’s Fuel Finder scheme, to which retailers must report price changes. They are reported observations and may have changed since.
- “Reported” is when the retailer last submitted that price. Prices not updated for more than 30 days are marked as out of date and are not used in averages or rankings.
- Averages, comparisons and statistics are calculated by aqoFUEL; reporting coverage varies between forecourts and over time.
- Fuel Finder identifier:
0875cf46b362acc95f5b1528f11911db49016105831dd8874a6be33de94213ba; in aqoFUEL’s record since 16 February 2026. - Something wrong? Report it to Fuel Finder.
