Petrol Prices

[Low Rider]

The RAC say that fuel price is likely to increase by 4p per litre in the coming weeks. Locally it is 103.9p

I have noticed that the price of petrol is going up
It is still really cheap though

 

[Synclare]

It's been creeping up the last week, currently 106.9 and no doubt be 110 by weekend end. Very short respite as usual. Russians and ragheads (as HT said) getting together to hike prices.

 

[Tracy Dee]

In my area last week 99.9 for unleaded and diesel super unleaded 110.9
This week I noticed all garages 105.5 unleaded 104.9 diesel God knows how much super will be now
Probably very high again as all ours cars run on super unleaded apart from our van diesel.
Low prices were short lived just ready for the summer.
Obviously super market fuel is cheaper but don't use it.

And I have just bought a 3.0 litre best go fill it the the brim

Prices are ranging between £101.9 at the supermarkets to £107.9 at the independents around here.

I'm paying 2p a litre more at the same Sainsbury's for their super-juice than I was a few weeks back. Always was going to rise, and no way it would stay that low for so long.

Now the real question is how high will it go...

 

[EnthuZiaZT]

Eventually it will go back to pre price drop prices Gaz, It may even go higher! as the petrol companies try to grab as much profit as possible.

I'm just glad I switched to a car which gets 3.5mpg better than my Z3 Mike

 

[EnthuZiaZT]

You may well find you've bought it a year too early Gaz, when the price of petrol goes up, the larger engined cars prices will fall dramatically.

I must be one of the odd few who never actually looks at how much it costs. Main reason being super is never listed on the boards. Just fill up and off I go for a couple of days

 

[EnthuZiaZT]

The price of petrol is not such an issue for us now @Lee, as we've retired, we have sold on two of our vehicles and only have two to put petrol in. Trouble is the other car has to work extra hard now.

It's all a bit of mute subject really because we all will pay whatever it is as we need it.
They know that so they'll just keep hiking up the price
We seem to be filling up our cars all the time, not sure why lol

 

[Redline]

Been 107.9ppL for a few days at our local and heading upwards again soon I bet.
Funny how the price goes up just as people start to think about getting out more

 

[Low Rider]

When I was in Australia years ago fuel used to go up in price as the week go closer to the weekend and drop on a Monday

 

[billz]

Still 101 for unleaded around here, not moved for around a fortnight

Is it?

 

[billz]

We are lucky that we have one of the lowest prices though out the country. As soon as i go south or north the price increases by around 2p per litre

 

[billz]

I agree Dave. Considering its still 40 dollars a barrel i think it is still well above the price it should be. The last time oil was at this price was 2003 and the cost per litre was 79p
