Reality Check - fuel prices in Hamble

[mjf]

On a run out at the w/e sae these for

Primier £1.052 / £1.39

MDL £1.15 / £1.50

Cowes £.75


I assume MDL berthholders get a discount? and I'm sure Cowes is commercial price or they have not changed their posted price in a while.

 

[Kipper]

are those prices net of tax and 60/40?

Brother runs 5 cat excavators and buys 2000l red diesel at a time , delivery this week he paid 63p + 5% vat .

 

[mjf]

yes - except I suspect Cowes which is 100% fuel tax free - ie like we used to enjoy.

 

[jfm]

I'm confused mjf. If those are 60/40 prices, then what/why are the TWO prices you quote eg £1.052 / £1.39?

Diesel/petrol?

Cowes prices..

...on their website are £0.75 commercial, £1.05 60/40 for diesel and £1.39 for petrol so no better than premier although they do give extra discounts of 2ppl and 4ppl if you are buying 500 or 1000 litres.

Website is http://www.cowesharbourfuels.co.uk/

I wonder if the prices are up here a few more people might decide to enjoy that tax free top-up.

 

[mjf]

Which is why just about everyone I know refuels from cans.
