Driving further for cheaper fuel

Riverstone Petroleum is much cheaper than the big brand servo chains and you get ULP 98 instead of 95 while you're at it. Assuming you don't care about the latter, is it worth it travelling the extra distance for cheaper fuel?

A round-trip from home to Riverstone is about 14km, and it's not on the way to/from anywhere, which means we'll consume 1.12L of petrol just to do it. In monetary terms that's about $2.60, so you'd better be making that up in savings.

If Riverstone is 10c/L cheaper, which is a fair guess, then it's worth making the trip as long as you're filling up 25L or more. To generalise this to an equation:

X = number of litres to break even
x = price of fuel at expensive servo, in cents (eg. 233)

X = 1.12 * ((x/10) - 1)

Perhaps of more interest, how big a difference is worthwhile for a normal fillup? We tend to fill when the tank is down to quarter full, meaning a 45L-or-more fill. Let's use 45L as the benchmark.

x = expensive price = 233c for this exercise
y = price gap at cheaper place, in cents

Find breakeven with these simultaneous equations:

45L at 233 cents = $104.85 (real)
46.12L at (233-y) cents = $104.85 (hypothetical)

Breakeven would be at 227.3c/L, meaning y = 5.66c difference. Rework the equations:

1.12x = 46.12y
x = 41.179y
x/41.179 = y

So Riverstone had better be at least "Big Chain Price divided by 41.179" cents cheaper. Because we're happy enough to err on the side of doing less driving, just round down and make it a factor of 40.

Take the Big Chain Servo price in cents, divide it by 40. If Riverstone is at least that many cents cheaper, it's worth it.

If petrol were $5.00 per litre, then Riverstone needs to be 12.5c cheaper to be worthwhile. If petrol were $1.20 per litre, a difference of 3c would be worthwhile.

Took ownership around 2015-08-08, which is 16 weeks ago (now 2015-11-28).

Total cost is $652.21 which amounts to $40.76 per week. I've driven *roughly* 4000km, which makes it **about 17c per km**.

Total consumption of 441.8 litres, making it about 11L per 100km, or a little less possible. That's pretty much as expected for urban driving, but I've definitely done plenty of open road driving as well, which should have dropped it somewhat.

Car was sadly written off as a result of the engine being flooded during torrential rain, around January 2016.
