Lets put this to bed now, either someone comes up with proof that their selling lower quality Petrol and Diesel or shut up about it. The whole town is using this petrol station to fill up their cars over the last few weeks and I for one have not heard one person complaining about the quality of fuel they are getting out there.

Lets be clear about another thing, What happened with the previous owners of the petrol station is absolutely nothing to do with the people running this petrol station. The cars sales and the petrol are run totally separate and are owned by two separate owners. The car sales have their own pump over at the gate to the back of the premises for their use only.

And finally before anyone accuses me of working there or having any sort of relationship with the owners I don't. I live a hell of a lot of people from our city am just purchasing my petrol there because it the cheapest around.

We go on about constantly been ripped off in this country, but when someone goes out and does something different to their competitors, they are accused of doing something inappropriate. Come on people, they people need to be congratulated and supported not knocked.

no its not, only some of the people that post on it

I've been getting petrol/diesel mainly in Autoport for a few years now, cant fault it, more places need to take their lead I think (unbranded = lower price).

Tesco have done a fantastic marketing job in convincing people that they're always the cheapest around...WRONG!

Station down by the park is also unbranded, Tesco work out cheap if you knock 5c of each litre with their current spend 50e and get 5c of each litre offer....otherwise their cheaper then others but not the cheapest

i wasn't looking to spread any rumour, nor did i start any rumour. its near where i live and i use it on occasion, thats why i asked. and for what its worth i fully agree with what aquos76 posted. i'd hope that some other petrol stations would take notice and maybe follow the autoports lead.

Cheapest petrol in the country last week according to the Will Leahy show on 2FM

The station down by the park is still expensive. Its barley cheaper then Tesco and yes with the Tesco offer if you spend over 50e it works out cheaper and just under the autoport.

Tesco have always been one of the cheapest stations in Waterford but as of late have became pretty expensive but still cheaper then Statoil. Which, iirc,

Id love to know how the autoport have held onto such cheap prices, and why others cant take a leaf out of their book.

Sorry I phrased that wrong. I meant to say that Teco is only slightly more expensive the the Autoport when the discount is applied!

afaik i think its the fella that owns ardfinnan oil that has the autoport,the park service station and the redbridge service station in newrath so thats more than likely why he,s able to have the prices so low as he,s a distributor so he aint losing money

The Park Service station has never been that cheap. Its often been more expensive then Tesco, and is only 2c cheaper now (without the Tesco discount). Why would one station be cheap and the other more expensive?

Sorry to slightly derail the thread lads but I was just wondering what diesel is going at roughly per litre around the city at the moment (trying to brace myself for when I get home, I fill the car over here for a tenner at the moment).

kensutz

€1.39 a litre or thereabouts.

Is it not owned by Tommy Farrell anymore no?

Ah jesus, I drive a 2.5 L diesel ;_;

€1.44.9 out in the maxoil out the dunmore road. and that was last week so it's probably gone up again.

Flyer1

That maxol place on the Dunmore road is daylight feckin robbery ! We get all our company fuel there, it hurts to be giving them money when it's 10cent cheaper down the road.

CantGetNoSleep

Maybe a few places get company fuel there then? They probably think drivers will go there anyway if the money isnt coming out of their own pockets. There is a place on the quays in Dublin where petrol a few weeks ago was 172.9 because of this

nkay1985

This might be a bit ridiculous of me but where's this autoport? And is it called Autoport or something? Never heard of it! If I'm guessing right, it's that which used to be Esso by the Holy Ghost House and Woodies etc?

Roen

It's the petrol station nearest WIT, just across the road from it at the top of Ballybeg.

mike65

Its just before the junction for the industrial estate as you go out the Cork road. It used to be an ESSO station.

Price is now 123.9 to get petrol in the Autoport.

Yeah, I also noticed that today, still cheaper that all other garages around but 1c dearer than the 5c off offer currently available in Tescos after a €50 spend on shopping.
