So I've been playing around the gub'mint's Fuel Finder API service, got a bit carried away with myself and made a full on fuel-finder website, finding cheap fuel for the purpose of.
It updates every 30 mins. It's quite worrying how many fuel retailers are not reporting according to the legislation, but I'm sure it'll get better over time. Law says they have to update their pricing data within 30 mins of a change. I'm excluding data over a week old at the moment due to the volatility. And also the plebs entering prices in pounds not pence.
I know there's several of these already out there, but I think mine is a nice simple mobile-friendly layout, and it's pretty quick most of the time.
Give it a spin, if you want, or not. Whatevs
