    In case anyone is still following this thread:

    Lee Garage (Model Farm Road): 118.9 for diesel
    24-Hour place on Kinsale Road, across from Harvey Norman: 117.9 for diesel
    Great Gas Turners Cross: 119.9 for diesel but they accept Tesco vouchers which give you either 5c or 10c off per litre (have to spend €50 or €100 in Tesco to get voucher).

    Definitely feeling the benefit of falling prices now - haven't bought diesel for under €1.10 for a long time!

    BTW, I was in England at the weekend and noticed that petrol is cheaper (a lot cheaper, about 10p per litre) than diesel.

    127.9 at Esso on South Link again, and I use them as a benchmark so the prices are probably on the income again. Feck.

    Yeah, I hadn't filled up in a week plus and the prices have gone from 125 to 130 in westlink pouldauff. :( It's the same price as the prices in the town nearest to me which are usually a few cent more expensive than in the city.

    Well, it looks like the halcyon days are over - nice while it lasted anyway!

    24-hour place near Harvey Norman: 122.9
    Great Gas Turner's Cross: 124.9
    Lee Garage: 122.9

    Did get diesel for 115.9 in Applegreen Ballincollig last Sunday, mind you.

    Great Gas Turners Cross is usually grand and cheap, an unfathomable 1.33 when I passed yesterday!

    It costs me €50 to fill up my 1.2l Opel Corsa since before Christmas. I always go to the Esso on the South Link. It gets me a minimum of 500km. Unreal.

    Esso south link was taken over by topaz hence the massive price increases.


    On a point of principle I never go to a topaz they seem to lead the way in increases and the others follow .

    No intention of dealing with Fathead O'Brien or the Cowan knacker.

    I've started noticing the increase in Esso petrol prices. The Applegreen beyond Glanmire is dirt cheap currently.

    If ur in west Cork fill up, 136.9/l for petrol in Leap today, Cork prices seem to be 141.9 regularly use that station and have no issues, good quality fuel and fair pricing, cheerio Esso in the South Link road.

    The difference in cost is staggering when you consider that you are paying around 24c per gallon more
