Why this price
What you're actually paying for
Of every litre of Standard Unleaded (E10) at 164.9p, 73.0p (≈ 44%) goes to the wholesale cost of the fuel itself, 53.0p (≈ 32%) is fuel duty paid to HMRC, 0.3p (≈ 0%) is VAT, and 38.6p (≈ 23%) is what the forecourt keeps to cover rent, staff, card fees and profit.
This station's margin of 38.6p is 34.4p above the five-mile average — notably high (neighbours average 4.2p). On our 0–10 fairness scale, 1.0/10 (high).
