The current price war between Liberty and United Petroleum is good news for Cairns motorists.

United Petroleum Chief Operating Officer, David Szymczak encourages motorists to fuel up and take advantage of the current discount prices.

"United brought discount fuel to North Queensland.

"From time to time a price war erupts, how long this extreme discounting will last, who knows. But what we do know is that United Petroleum offers value to our customers year-round.
