Noticed Asda a while back started doing petrol with .7p now, e.g 132.7p. If I did just buy 1ltr of petrol, how would I pay that? If I bought 2ltrs, that would cost me £2.65.4 - would they round it down?

.9p is just as pointless - why not just a simple £1.32!

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

But if I put 1 litre in my RRS I would travel about 4 miles.

if you're really nervous about this happening, fill up with 10-liters (or multiples of)  Recently bought a 2007 RRS HSE TDV6 for a Pimp-My-Ride-Project.

I think trading standards may have a thing or two to say about that.

What if they started selling milk at 98.7p ?  RR Sport Supercharged Vesuvius Orange 4.2 V8 First edition

Prefer RR Vouge S/C but they don't do Orange !

You can't buy just 1 litre of fuei at a petrol station. Minimum delivery is 2 litres. It says so on the pump.
Personally i don't know how they get away with the .p It should be scrapped. Its not as though we can pay a . pence.

I find that the only numbers you should pay attention to when buying fuel is your pin number. The other numbers are best ignored.

They just round up at the end of the delivery. You never lose more than 0.9p of course so on an individual basis it's not a problem. They make a lot of money from it over the course of a year though...

I think the legislation requires/allows them to do it this way. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

do they round it up if it's say 1039.1p, to £10.40, as they should really round it down then to £10.39 ?! so the most you lose is 5p  Recently bought a 2007 RRS HSE TDV6 for a Pimp-My-Ride-Project.

Some interesting comments. I think it is blatant false advertising and however you look at it, you can never really pay the advertised price and as someone else said, if we started charging for other daily products, like milk etc with a .7p or .9p, it may raise a few more eyebrows than what we currently take for as granted.
