    Also there's the one right down the end through Newtown before the N11 entrance heading in the Newcastle direction.

    Pumps.ie also have an iPhone app which is pretty handy if you are out and about and looking for the best fuel prices. Apple garage in Ballinteer was 132 when I filled up last week

    There's a guy down in the industrial estate in Kilcoole selling biodiesel at €1.10 per litre.
    It works perfectly on my older Toyota and is WAY cheaper than standard diesel. Better for the environment too!

    100% legal. It's normal diesel mixed with vegetable oil I think.
    Talk to your mechanic about it, I don't know if it's suitable for all diesel engines. But he is running a number of fleets with it.
    I was a little nervous the first time I used it but the car ran perfectly. I even got better MPG from it.:)
    BTW he's first (ie cheapest) on that website you posted, if you click on the diesel option.

    is that the price today? Just half filled the tank at Esso in greystones and it was (i think) 134.9 - thats some difference... Pumps.ie has the Kilpedder guys charging 132.9

    There's a place in Rathnew that I stop at sometimes if I'm passing through and it always seems to be really cheap. Always a queue too though!

    best local price is Kilpedder Ultima Oil. Best within 10 mile has got to be Rathnew's Applegreen...not sure if they're fully branded yet.

    Kilcoole Topaz is usually 1c dearer than Ultima Oil every time.
