5+ years on, Firty might just be taking a tentative tankful of Costco diesel, especially at 15c below average. :victory:

Problem? Not at all. I've just stuck to BP Ultimate for its consistent quality. However, given that Costco buy from the local fuel wholesalers anyway, quality is there by compliance and their bowsers are bound to be clean and healthy with such brisk business. :victory:

Wow, fuel is quite cheap here in Perth, I should have rented something bigger than a Corolla, I'm not saving much at all! :blubber:

I thought there might be a problem, given where you've posted your topic :rolleyes:

Yes I'm paying $1.29 for Vortex at the moment.There's been a large drop in Diesel prices at the moment,because ULP had dropped so much motoring authorities and large transport companies were starting to make noise of taking action,because diesel prices were not dropping accordingly

I am in Sydney for a few more days, saw BP ultimate Diesel selling at $1.22 then today saw Caltex Vortex Diesel $1.18 BP 98 $1.20 Unleaded $1.08
 
Wish I had a 200 lt drum with me but too risky
I think we better make the best of it while we can. 1.34 for normal diesel down the coast takes longer to drop . But saw BP ultimate diesel at$1.49 at one place in sydney they were very sneaky they had diesel $1.18 up on the board but go in & that was normal BP Ultimate Diesel $1.49 normal diesel $1.18 at same place on same day work that out?
