There was a time last year (late summer/Autumn-ish IIRC) when at a few local garages, regular diesel was 3-4p/l cheaper than regular petrol. I only noticed this at Esso garages, and sadly, it didn't stay that way for very long!

No it was like for like, granted it was a local station out of town away from any competition. But I did think it was a huge difference.
