Aberdeen

The cheapest unleaded in town currently starts near 146p per litre. Unleaded currently varies by roughly 8p per litre between the cheapest and dearest forecourts, which is enough to notice on a full tank.

The supermarket sites, including Asda and Tesco, tend to set the floor for prices here. Supermarkets account for 6 of the 27 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Costco. Several of the busier sites sit along Garth Dee Road and Muir End Road, so you can check them against each other without leaving your usual route.

Unleaded here currently averages several pence under the wider Highlands and Islands figure. For diesel, expect an average of roughly 162p per litre locally.

The comparison covers stations up to roughly 12 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre. Prices in Aberdeen can move mid-week as well as at weekends, so the ordering above is worth a glance even if you always use the same forecourt.

Use the live table for the exact prices at each site, or set an alert if you would rather be told when your usual stations drop.
