Hi

Depends what and where you buy it......

Our local Spar shop stocks two brands and one is half the price of the other for the same volume !!!!

Thanks

I think the BP station the we buy fuel for our vans is taking the p**s.
The charge £33.63 for 10 litres. The same stuff is available through Amazon for £18.50 and I think that is expensive for a solution of wee and water.

Hi

Adsa are doing 10l for £13.
I think local Spar was £14.99 a few weeks ago.....

From theaa.com:
What is AdBlue made of?
AdBlue is a colourless, non-toxic mixture of urea and de-ionised water. It’s not actually blue at all.

Lots of people think AdBlue is made of pig urine – it’s not. The urea used in AdBlue is a high purity man-made solution – pig urine wouldn’t be pure or sterile enough for a commercial product.

Doubled its price in two years.
Paying £22 for 20 litres.

As aja4x4 stated it’s not easy holding them.
Usually make a small hole in the top, then tape it over if not emptied, fills much quicker, it doesn’t sit for long, we use over 20 litres a week, if one vehicle doesn’t take the full 20, the next one that comes in the yard gets a top up.

Local Esso £30, local BP £23. Rip off Britain. They charge what they think people will pay, not what it cost to make plus a reasonable profit. Like Diesel prices, I'm firmly if the view that the price of fuel has been deliberately reset by what amounts to a cartel of Government and fuel industry, it will now fluctuate around the new higher level of the £175p litre basis once the current round of profiteering settles down.
