In terms of Total garages - there seems to be one chain of them who have been particularly slow at changing them -

This one in Nottingham (which will transform in to an Esso when you move towards Nottingham by one movement)

This one in Sheffield (which still has those hilariously old pumps despite the very swish "Synergy" Esso branding)

Both only transferred last year. While trading as Total, I saw both being serviced by Gulf tankers - did they take on a rump of the former Total business?

Just up the road from that Sheffield Total/Esso is a BP Shop 'n' Drive - is that a rarity?

The new brand was designed to compliment the Esso Fuel brand to create a strong visual harmony between the two brands.

ahahahahaha.

So we'll make it look like it's come out of the 70s.

Still, if it means we get petrol at these prices, I'm all for it.

Carpet right have finally got a pretty decent re brand.

Will the signs be in the right shape now, or will they still be stretched into all sorts of shapes?

Oddly enough I don't think it really fits the name though… the new one feels a bit dour with that full stop at the end and the grey background, whereas the previous one was cheap but a bit more cheerful (I think it's the tick that makes it).

The new one looks like a car mat

Well I like it, and they are not all stretched to fit ALL OF THE SPACE.

It appears it's replaced this logo too, which went on a couple of stores but eventually became the corporate logo:

Looks nice.
