Difference in MPG from different petrol stations

    Has anyone else noticed the MPG can drastically change depending on where they buy the petrol/diesel?

    I watch the fuel consumption like a hawk - using the fuel log app on my phone, but before that I always kept an eye on it.

    I recently have been doing a lot of mileage, and have bought diesel at a few different places - and twice I bought it at applegreen just outside dublin on the M8 south. And both times I get approx 100km per tank more than other stations.

    I normally get just under 1,100 km in my 1.9l passat, but those times I have been getting close to 1,200 km. I initially thought it was somehow related to me driving more optimally - but the next fill ups came from other petrol stations, and my fuel economy was back down again.

    Mentioned this to a guy in work - and before I said the station name, he said it - he had noticed it in his petrol car too. So - is there anything to this?
