Andrew Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I'm not doing many miles at the moment so haven't topped up for a couple of weeks.. just noticed my local garage are charging £1-27 for a litre. Pretty sure not so long back they were up about £1-34?? I guess the supermarkets will be a couple of pence cheaper than that too.. how we doing for prices about the country?

SootySport Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Gone down here too. Petrol consumption has gone down in the UK over the last few years although Diesel consumption has gone up. The US are now overproducing refined fuels so the cost has gone down. Still expensive though and the lower cost won't last will it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User0083 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Doing many motorway miles and filling up at motorway services most of the time I do not look. But have found that only using V power or Ultima fuels I get many more miles! Yes it's 5pm more a litre, so costs £2.50 per tank.. But in the city run around I get 70miles extra on a motorway run... So save about £8!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall_iom Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 143.9p/ltr for super unleaded over here and 147.9p/ltr for diesel. Makes me sad when I see what you chaps are paying just over the water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenh Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 just goes to show how we are getting ripped off with diesel because its the same stuff but with a dye added.so should cost more It just goes to show how much duty there is on road fuels, because that is the sole difference in the price.
