Where the flipping heck is that - all the BP's round me its about 5p more.....

Though a few years back Ultimate was always a shed load over normal so I stayed away from BP!

West midlands area.filled upto day

Ultimate was 1.37
normal was 1.17

Prices have dropped and as they sell less ultimate I guess it's old stock.

Normally it is 10p more. Never seen it only 5p more!!!

Ouch

It used to be stupid like that round our way but they have brought it down so its equivalent to the Shell Nitro+

Here in this bit of the West Midlands, BP on A449 is 117 for normal diesel and 127 for ultimate.

They have had it closer before and they also have cut price fuel days, they knock 5p off Ultimate etc.

Same here ultimate Is about 17ppl more expensive than Bp standard.

But we do both live in the same sort of area

Tell a lie - its 7p more not 5!

I've been using bp ultimate since I collected my car, with the exception of once or twice having to use normal diesel and never noticed any differance, last night I fould a shell station not to far which sold v power nitro. Now i'd swear it's deffinatetly quieter, possibly running smoother also. v power is also around 10p per ltr cheaper than BPU also.
