  • Independent forecourts12 forecourts181.8p/lPetrol (E10)

At category level, the lowest current averages come from independent forecourts for Petrol (E10), Diesel (B7) and Super unleaded (E5). There is not enough current supermarket or major-brand coverage to identify a named operator leader. There is not enough 30-day history to describe the direction of supermarket or major-brand prices reliably. The independent comparison covers 12 forecourts reporting Petrol (E10), Diesel (B7) and Super unleaded (E5), so its averages should be read with that coverage in mind.
