Thanks Jordan.... yes folks I have just visited two Shell filling stations, both of which have a 7p per litre price difference between 95RON and V-Power.

Filling stations were Fleet and Farnborough.

It is all a lie

mikeythemini · Oct 24th, 2007, 03:14 PM

No but as soon as you drive in a guy lurking on the front tells you & gives you a v power leaflet
Same offer on v power diesel

minicabrio · Oct 24th, 2007, 03:22 PM

wallace · Oct 24th, 2007, 04:04 PM

Jordan210 · Oct 24th, 2007, 04:22 PM

At my Shell its 104p for Vpower

Would have liked it cheep as need to fill the car up now

lucachiarelli · Oct 24th, 2007, 04:26 PM

I just payed £1.06 per litre at blackburn shell.

minicabrio · Oct 24th, 2007, 04:34 PM

I'm on the phone to Shell UK now

minicabrio · Oct 24th, 2007, 04:39 PM

Okay this is a national campaign which will only target certain sites on certain days. It's not advertised, and the only way to check when your service station is next running a 'V-Power Day' would be to contact the site directly.

The funniest thing about phoning Shell is the lady on the phone being German, who consequently pronounced it "Wee Power"

mikeythemini · Oct 24th, 2007, 05:21 PM

I will try to find out when the offer is on at Formby then you could use it as an excuse to visit newministuff

Rooster · Oct 24th, 2007, 05:39 PM

Filled up at London Rd, Nottingham. £1.01 at 4.20pm today Asked the guy at the checkout about the promotion and he didn't know anything about it. Just as I was leaving they were changing the signs to £1.02.

I have just phoned 3 Shell garages in Leicester. 2 didn't know anything about these promotions and one did but said they were not doing the promotion. Is it the garages that don't sell much V-Power that are doing this promotion?

FergusM · Oct 24th, 2007, 07:37 PM

no promotion in Hamilton (Glasgow)... but needed fuel anyway so fille up with the usual V-power...

geordiexile · Oct 24th, 2007, 10:11 PM

Thrapston Services, Northamptonshire A14/A506 99.9p for both regular unleaded and V-Power tonight when I filled up. Not sure if this is a one-off (nothing advertised) or a long-term offer.

118 · Oct 24th, 2007, 11:08 PM

no offer on at my nearest (Littlehampton)

Ramon · Oct 24th, 2007, 11:27 PM

Unless the engine is highly tuned, you are wasting your money getting higher octane fuel. Read the reviews!

Bonnie Scotland · Oct 25th, 2007, 03:16 AM

Offer available in Montrose again yesterday, Me Julie filled my car up for me whilst i was away working
