Mobil - National Lead Free Petrol Week, A30 Basingstoke Bypass, Berkshire February 1989
Lots to appreciate here - iconic Mobil Elliot Noyes designed pumps, lovely period Mobil canopy with the circular inserts, green bunting to signify the unleaded petrol week and the Mini Mart shop, in this era I got all kinds of great freebies from Mobil by collecting tokens from buying petrol. In Cambridge we had several Mobil filling stations and in those days I was doing a driving job in the Cambridge area so in the space of a few months I got about a dozen coffee mugs and a full socket set among other items! I'm struggling to find this location today - I suspect because it no longer exists. There is a Texaco station just off the now A339 which looks kind of similar but not sure it's the same place www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.2751621,-1.1028688,3a,75y,10.17... Edit correct location thanks to amazingstoker www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.2512514,-1.0866679,3a,75y,223.4...
