    No option for "none"

    I buy on price and convenience to me, not on brand.

    It so happens that Woolworths Caltex is the closest and is the cheapest even before taking into account any 4c discounts.

    I rarely buy petrol, usually only LPG.

    Late Edit: BTW, I didn't vote because I don't live up on the GC so a vote from me would skew the results.

    Hi Outlaw, altho I voted Shell, this is only one of three choices as I prefer Shell and BP, I will also use Mobil.

    As I like my RR, I wouldn’t use Caltex, come Ampol, come Woolworths crap in my lawnmower let alone in my RR.

    Cheers and nice idea.

    But you'd see thatr some of us have no brand loyalty so they'd be happy to convert to whatever brand with which you struck deal.

    By forcing them to choose a brand, they may just take the first one on the list and give a distorted result to the survey. Oh, that's how all surveys get the result they want.

    normally fill up at the BP in southport, on my way home and also cheap compared to other servos. Every time i fill up with another brand, the fender seems to be a tad more sluggish??

    My choice is not based on brand loyalty but on quality loyalty.

    BP and Shell guaranty the quality of their fuel and genuine Mobil outlets do too and while the minimum quality standards for fuel in Oz are progressively being raised by the Federal government, full world parity is not mandatory until 2011 and as such Caltex, Ampol and Woolworths serve up the minimum quality that they can get away with.

    This crap quality fuel is not good for European engines and the main reason we have been missing out on some of the new vehicles being released over there.

    Outlaw. Talk to the people at IFS at Burliegh. They would more than likely do a deal??? I use the ethanol blend in the work ute no problems. And I use their diesel in the Rangie.
