MURCO filling station, Huddersfield Road, Holmfirth
At this time when petrol prices were falling and most garages and supermarkets selling at under £1 a litre, this one was charging 105.9 pence. In a recent forum discussion on this site, "GHo" explained using industry inside knowledge that "smaller companies such as Murco cannot get the same economies of scale or cross-subsidy that the larger ones get. Also, the stuff sold at supermarkets is an inferior product therefore can be sold cheaper."
