PETROL PRICES
 
Just got back from Cardiff and was amazed to see the difference in prices per litre en route. Cheapest was near home Wrexham 120.9 pl unleaded and diesel at 122.9 pl.
dearest was in Hereford 126.9pl unleaded and 128.9 ppl diesel.
What are you paying near you?

dodgydiy 14-12-2010 10:48 PM

123.9 and 126.9 in kilgetty, pembs and that one of the cheaper garages in the area

racingdwarf 14-12-2010 10:51 PM

local forcourt has just jumped 5p a ltr for derv now £1.25 a ltr, they say because of the weather in the uk supply is short:confused:.God knows what they would charge if the weather realy got mean for a month or so.

Just payed £1.18 in Hull for unleaded

Big G 14-12-2010 11:02 PM

1.25 for Derv at morrisons in Leominster (Just down the road from Hereford)

Texaco on the A49 ran out of stanard diesel so I had to use the ultra stuff. 1.33!!! I only put a £5er in which was about 3 1/2 litres! :'(

Hog 14-12-2010 11:10 PM

Up to 127.9 for a litre of diesel here in Sittingbourne, Kent :cry:

DCM 14-12-2010 11:26 PM

118.9p last week in Tesco Cardiff.

mikerobinson83 14-12-2010 11:45 PM

last time i filled up it was £1.16.9 was two weeks ago at a sainsbury's in plymouth

phil c 15-12-2010 12:04 AM

I put super unleaded in tonight £1.30 per litre :-( In hull

daz 15-12-2010 12:18 AM

Just wait until the vat increase in the new year that plus the rising costs they reckon will push it to £1.30 a litre..

coolcars782 15-12-2010 01:18 AM

Texaco Premium Unleaded £1-18.99

Holeshot 15-12-2010 01:47 AM

Down in Australia seem to average $1.35 a litre for unleaded. About 10c more the premium which is around the same for diesel.

Bungleaio 15-12-2010 05:01 AM

Petrol is about 117.9 in leicester, at sub 20 mpg it started to hurt so I've switched to LPG at 65p :D

and in January 2011 won't we have to pay an extra 2.5% on the VAT they put on fuel, correct me if I'm wrong

c0sie 15-12-2010 09:32 AM

The government could put it up to £2 a litre tomorrow and we would all still pay those prices.

Petrol prices are rediculous, yet we need fuel to get around.

I dont think there is anything anyone can do to get prices down at all, except for emigrating abroad.

AmiSMB 15-12-2010 09:50 AM

I will stick with the LPG at 69.5 but saw it had gone up to 75.9 at Titchfield! Five years ago I was paying 29.9!

Chrislong 15-12-2010 10:24 AM

Isn't LPG pegged/fixed to 50p/litre less than unleaded?

Near Bolton it is £1.18/litre at Tesco, £1.19/litre at the Shell which is near it. That was as of Monday when I last drove past.

back in 94 diesel was 49.9p when I first got a diesel and I can remember working at an Asda filling station part time in 75/76 when it was less than a £1 a gallon :woot:. Bet there's

bodgit 15-12-2010 10:53 AM

The old days.
In 1977 I got my first bike and it was 92p a gallon 20p lt. I thought that was expensive but In 1973 when a gallon went up to 34p about 7.5p lt I remember my old dears hitting the roof but at least they got double quadrable green shield stamps then.

I was in hartlepool today and I paid 75.9 at a shell garage :woot:, I had done about 30 miles on petrol so I paid it rather than burn any more petrol but thats the most I've paid for LPG.

I need to fill again tomorrow but I'll be doing that at my usual place at 65p a litre.

simond001 15-12-2010 09:39 PM

Just worked out the £1.76 per gallon when i started driving (1987) is somewhat different to to the £5.71 I just paid.

ouch.

mole2k 05-01-2011 10:53 AM

Over here your looking around £1.28~1.34 for diesel, thankfully im about 8 miles from the border into the Republic of Ireland. It works out about £1.14~1.15 litre there.

they cant afford the fuel to get there :p:p

Big G 05-01-2011 01:14 PM

Morrisons Leominster was 129.9 yesterday 131.9 today
Bengreys Texaco now 133.9

diesel prices. I don't pay much attention to the unleaded sorry.

So glad I car share with the Mrs to work so we take turns in filling the car up. It halved my fuel bill when she started working here :D

ConceptRacing 05-01-2011 04:14 PM

Wish this goverment would encourage the use of bio diesel in this country but of course they wont as it upsets the petrol companies and they cant get the same revenue as normal fuel, I know ASDA did try last year with bio30 but that got withdrawn after a short period, and at the time it was at least 15p per litre cheaper than normal diesel, about time we looked at making our own but that has its own pit falls.

bodgit 05-01-2011 07:07 PM

127.9 for diesel yeaterday at Morrisons near Chester. Unleaded was about 124 ltr. When I bought my diesel just over 3 years ago diesel was cheaper than petrol but the thieving goverment saw the change to diesel and made it dearer soon after.

mole2k 05-01-2011 07:16 PM

Over here in NI, diesel has been more expensive than petrol for a long time as diesel has been the dominate fuel type for quite a number of years here.

Dave Dodd 05-01-2011 07:53 PM

monday: 123.9 diesel asda granthem
today : 128.9 diesel morissons neitherfield nottingham
today : 126.9 diesel saxondale roundabout bingham

Pitman 05-01-2011 10:17 PM

so has anyone actually taken up any of the offers from the forecourts or supermarkets to get there fuel cheaper like morrisons / esso points or fuel cards

i use about 80 quid a week and thats without going on any long drives at weekend to a track

just wondering !

captainlip 05-01-2011 10:24 PM

BP bury - diesel 135.9p :cry:
