Pity the Marlborough motorist. Not only is he or she offered the fuel prices at Dean's Garage (at the time this photograph was taken, it was selling diesel at 150.9 pence a litre, while another station in a nearby town was selling it at 137.9 pence) - but there is this parking space to negotiate at the nearby Majestic Wine Warehouse. Perhaps you could get a Reliant Robin inside it.
