Why is the cost of diesel in Mazarron going up every day? Yesterday 1.32€ I filled up in Plego at 1.18€ that is a significant difference on a tank full.
Cheapest fuel is Mazarron is at the Wash Park.
Always 5 / 6 / 8 cents a litre cheaper than the main stream garages.
Leave the Mercadona roundabout & head up into the town.
Wash Park is on your left about halfway up before the next roundabout.

It's not just Mazarron, Diesel is going up all over Europe, try buying it in the UK! Petrol has been reduced but, according to the press they are blaming it on the wholesale price increase for Diesel! I'm afraid politicians with nothing between their ears are manipulating prices and bad mouthing Diesel power for cars. Strange how they ignore buses, lorries, ships etc. We consumers just have to put up with it and accept the devaluation of our cars that these political moves have caused.

Maybe, but this is the cheapest I have bought diesel in Spain in the last 3 years. Maybe its just B.P. as both stations in Pto are B.P.

Wait until next year. They are going to sting diesel severely.
They reckon it will be more expensive than 98 octane petrol.
Road tax for diesel will be hit too.
Spain like many eu countries have gone seriously anti-diesel.
3 years ago it was very much pro diesel.
Diesel was 99c at Repsol :) garages.

Off topic I know, but I regularly fill up at Carrefour using their card. Year's ago the discount came off the price of your fuel. Nowadays you are given a voucher which I never seem able to use. Can someone explain how it works? I have asked at customer service but got nowhere!
