No service?

Do no petrol stations offer service (i.e. garage attendants that actually fill up for you, check oil., wipe windscreens etc)?

You don't mention that aspect at all. Some people would be prepared to pay a little extra for not having to get out of their car on a rainy day and get their hands oily and cold.

Pump Attendants more or less died out about a decade ago, but I notice that a couple of garages in my area are now proudly announcing 'We Serve You' once more, everything comes full-circle eventually, I suppose.

And - how does that affect the price?

I'm not too sure - the garages in question were horrendously expensive to start with! Nearby stations selling the same petrol seem to be equally expensive, though.

Well - hope the attendants are at least really dishy, then.
