But way worse for your car if it's not designed for it.

Gull fuel has only 80% of the energy of 'normal' fuel

gull diesel max is better for engines as it lubes the diesel pump!

Independent ones are usually cheaper,I have found and sometimes by a big margin,eg 10cents.I used to use gull but found that the fuel economy with that on my little turbo starlet was worse than paying a bit extra at Z or mobil where economy was so much better. Btw are new cars tuned to run biofuels as well!

It's not a school of thought, or far from proven. It's easily proven by anyone.

Mobil Avalon Hamilton is usually 4-6 cheaper than Z & BP. Hamilton is pretty good and keeping the prices the same (at the stations I go past). Gull is always around 10c less than the Big Guys - Mobil Avalon usually match them. And "sometimes" Caltex Avalon will match Mobil Avalon but thats not often, and Caltext is usually 3-4c higher than Mobil when Mobil is cheap as. And Mobil do a 4c off if you spend $4 instore (waste of time though, you spend your savings on a Pie!!) so they can be anything from 4-14c cheaper (if you buy instore). Mobil Frankton will occassionally match Avalon. But yeah, Hamilton is pretty good with consistent prices.

And I;ve also noticed Mobil Avalon wont put their price up for a few days after Z/BP go up so can be sometimes OVER 10c cheaper (but that dont happen often and if it does you gotta be quick).

+1 very much scientifically proven, Gull themselves admit it.
