Every litre of petrol sold in the UK has to meet the same British Standard (BS EN 228), and every litre of diesel BS EN 590. A supermarket cannot sell a lesser grade any more than a branded forecourt can. Most of it starts as the same base fuel from the same refineries and shared terminals; what differs is the additive package each company puts in at the terminal, and the price on the pole.
Additives matter less than the marketing suggests. Every standard fuel already contains the detergents the standard demands. Branded “premium” grades carry stronger detergent packages and, for petrol, a higher octane rating. That helps an engine designed for it. For the engine in most family cars it makes no measurable difference to economy, power or reliability, and no independent test has shown otherwise.
The money is in the standard grades. The gap between the cheapest supermarket and a branded forecourt on the same road is often 5p to 10p a litre, which is £2 to £5 every tank, £100 to £250 a year for an average driver. That is the figure worth chasing, and the list above shows it for your postcode today.
