    Supermarket petrol is cheaper partly because it does not contain some of the expensive additives found in major brand fuel. These additives improve economy, reduce emissions and, most importantly, help to keep your engine's fuel system clean. Use supermarket fuel by all means but, 1. Be aware of the difference in quality and 2. Use the occasional tankful of Shell Optimax or BP Ultimate to help prolong the life of your engine.

    Particularly, if you have an older car with a good few miles on the clock, make sure you don't have supermarket petrol in the tank when you go for your MOT - you may fail the emissions test.
