Locally I can buy Esso, Total or City Diesel at supermarkets.
No Texaco or Shell at all locally.
Which brand is next best?
If I make a 10 mile round trip I can buy BP Ultimate costing 6p per litre more! No extra mpg but a bit better acceleration.

I wasna fu but just had plenty.

HJ reckons BP Ultimate is best, I buy it because my local is BP, I reckon Shell or Texaco are marginally better though.

i honestly think it depends on the vehicle, my old isuzu liked the shell stuff my old renault van seems to start and run better on the cheapest nastiest mixtures imaginable in particular heating oil (not on the public highway of course). i think it's all down to personal prefference and cost maybe....cheers...keo

ESSO now sell ENERGY, of course it is the same stuff, but people are suckers for marketting!

Sorry, HJ, yes the readers. However I find that my Mondeo TDCi runs just a little more sweetly on BP Ultimate than normal BP, supermarket diesel etc though a bit more sweetly again on Shell or Texaco both of which, I understand, come from the same refinery and both of which are cheaper than BP Ultimate.
