  • c$203.9/L here in Vancouver (£1.20/litre) which is a record high, and everyone is going crazy.

    Thankfully I live near the US border. Gas in Washington state currently 76p/litre.


    $4 per gallon (67p per litre) here in Texas and everyone is losing their minds.
    the US liquid gallon is a lot smaller than the Imperial (UK) gallon
  • Correction  I've just checked and Shell Station charging 1.80 and Tesco Express Esso opposite is 1.64. Why would people pay 1.80 when station on opposite side of road is 16p less.
    There is a small difference in quality, mainly additives that may or may not make a difference, depending on the vehicle
  • A2 Harbledown today.

  • @Callumcafc What do you drive out in Texas?

    Ha I will let you know when I have my license..
  • A2 Harbledown today. 
    That's insane.

    They should be done by Trading Standards. For fuel/gas/water there should be a maximum amount retailers can charge - something like 5% more than the rrp. 

    I paid 161.9 on tuesday for diesel. The above is 25p above that, so 15% more than I paid.
  • @ME14addick

    Tesco in Bearsted 177 for diesel, whereas Shell 193 this morning!

    Oil prices plunge after UAE agree to pump more crude. Wonder how long that will take to be reflected at the pumps….

    probably drop- five pence or so yet still be VERY expensive .. more incentive to buy an electric vehicle .. BUT, how will the grid cope with huge increases in demand ?
  • probably cost just as much to charge an electric motor given energy prices ;)
  • Petrol £1:589 in Sainsbury at Crayford this morning.

    'main route' petrol especially motorway stops, have always been very expensive .. I have always wondered why, except in an 'emergency' anybody would patronise them .. also I suppose, business travellers (who don't have a caravan and horse) on expenses don't care what the price is

    Same on all transport. Businessmen would never bother using a railcard or getting a cheaper ticket even if it saves a few hundred quid.

    25p above?
    I make it 45p.
    206-161 = 45.

    Exactly, I've never bought petrol at a motorway s/stn.
    Petrolprices.com is good to find the cheapest.

  • Tomorrow some petrol stations will be selling without VAT in sign of protest against the recent high prices. Here's a list of the ones near you...

  • Just had my Fuel card prices through for next week, going up another 17 pence a litre from midnight Sunday so another 77 pence a gallon. 
    Considering roughly 180 gallons gets put in across my fleet at the start of the week its a big chunk of money.

    Doesn’t change the litre price.

    true .. BUT the poster 's conversion from gallon to litre was wrong .. and in the US, petrol is purchased per gallon not per litre
  • I think we’ve already had that joke.

    Petrol in NZ tipped to go over the $4/litre mark.
  • Rocketing here now.....around the $3 (1.67 gbp) a litre mark up from an average $1.40 (80p) ish for 98octane
