Yeah that aint bad at all! yeah I am concerned if the diesel there would do damage to the car, if its safe, its probably worth it!

I was more concerned about bad diesel damaging the car, was just curious as to other people's experiences.

I was using it for the last year or so, but won't again after having to rescue the missus from fúcking Naas and replace the air mass meter on my Octavia 1.9 TDi (over €100). :mad:

Of course, I can't be 100% certain it was down to dirty diesel from City Fuels, but I won't be buying there no more. My mechanic just laughed and rolled his eyes when I told him! Said he reckons it's half-recycled ****e from up North...

Filled up at Clare St. Emo the other day and diesel was 137.9, I'll be interested to see if Tesco is any cheaper.

If not, ill check on way home.

139

Yeah just filled up in the Tesco... Seems the Great Gas on the Ennis Road (where o'maras used to be) is the same price at €146.9/L

Also love the way that it's 1 clubcard point for every €2 spent, though the "pay at the pump function" is handy!

Did they not try to close down that station on the Dublin Rd ?http://www.limerickleader.ie/news/local/cut_price_limerick_diesel_depot_ordered_to_close_down_by_council_1_2192739 .

bazz26 · 27-06-2011 8:04pm

Esso at Singland Motors on the Dublin Road and Maxol at the opposite side were 137.9 for diesel and 146.9 for petrol yesterday.

Savage, thought 139 was a bit steep alright yesterday!

The topaz stations on the dock road are 149.9... Talk about not even trying to compete with tesco!

phog · 28-06-2011 11:04pm

Diesel in Tesco is 136.9, it's 137.9 at EMO on the Dublin rd and 139.9 in the station near Supermacs on the Ennis Rd and the Topaz near Eniis Rd Motors.

Actually they are trying to make it look like they are competing. The little cluster of stations on the dock road and Dooradoyle all managed to drop price by a few cent just before the Tesco station opened.

It, as always, is still the most expensive cluster in the Limerick area though with the Topaz beside the hospital out in front as usual at 154.9 for unleaded.

I walked through there recently - Fuel cards not accepted, so that rules out people there getting a better price than shown on the sign.

So that leaves us with the unobservant people, the more money than sense people, and people not paying for their own petrol costs.

I'm almost sure Diesel was €135.9 in Tesco Coonagh Cross this morning!

ewob · 29-06-2011 5:24pm

Must have read it wrong.....http://pumps.ie/findStationsBySearch.php?search=tesco

littlemis · 29-06-2011 7:36pm

Coonagh still €144.9 & a lovely mannered young man on forecourt to help explain the system of paying and collecting points....Very nice to see. & also in the kiosk the staff were nice, polite & friendly.....My custom will go there each week from now on.....Very impressed I was.:)

Yes I have to say their manners were second to none, and all were very helpful... Though on the issue of collecting points it read my clubcard fine but on the receipt it said I "earned 0 points this transaction" I hope thats just a glitch as i spent almost €40 filling my little cars tank

I do know that for the petrol they give 1 clucbcard point for every €2 spent (there are signs up that say this) so €50.02 on fuel = 25 points and €3.23 on other products = 3 points! 28 points on you receipt therefore makes sense!

If I had brains working today,I could be dangerous...and I can't even say I am having a blond moment, like they say these days but I most definately am having a brunette one.

highlydebased · 29-06-2011 10:42pm

Topaz across from Coonagh 146 today for Petrol...I see what they did there... :P

daveob007 · 30-06-2011 3:56pm

munstergirl · 01-07-2011 2:17pm

Shelbourne garage on ennis rd now have their petrol at €144.9

phill106 · 01-07-2011 3:12pm

Also got some diesel there in coonagh, only 2 bad things I can see about it.

1. The price sign. Stick it on the flipping roof or something so we can see it from the road!
2. Instead of having staff outside telling us to push the button to pick to pay at kiosk or by card at the pump, how about a nice big sign/sticker saying the same thing?

On a side note, i saw the right lane was closed, looked very tight to get in there. Wouldn't fancy a jeep/suv on that side!
