It's all basically the same product wherever you buy it. However the additives used by the likes of Shell etc do seem to make a difference.

Exactly,

and you pay to buy those additives, or maybe just for their advertising and higher profits, you decide.

 

So choices are good, and doing your own testing over a period of times of filling up, after all who is best placed to know how your car/s or vehicles behaves on different fuels.

You have a lifetime to try things out. Or just fill up, pay and drive.

(Unless all that bad fuel sold in the UK that is used by millions of people & vehicles kills your engines.)

Aral in Germany is very good.

 

All the main brand petrol stations add there own additives....supermarkets are your cheap as chips stuff with far less additives.......Its like going to get some jeans from Superdry or George at Asda......they are the same material just a few things are done differently.....

and you pay to buy those additives

 

I don't. In my area, Shell standard diesel is the same price as the Tesco down the road.
