High diesel prices only drive consumers/truckers/van drivers to buy from dodgy people, in-turn funding organisations of different types....been goin on for as long as I can remember, moreso down the sticks where there ain't so many checkpoints....ummmm colourfull diesell yummmm

10% rise in price is really hitting people in here as majority of deliveries to shops is made with trucks and trucks are using diesel, so transport company rises delivery prices and shop keeper rises price of goods, tax payer demands more salary and round it goes, inflation which is going to be pretty ugly thing if this thing goes on.

I wonder how in some countries same stuff is sold 0.3€/l level, maybe private army is needed to cover transports to western world or something?

Any enviromental reason is bulls*it, at least in here cars are making so small part of co2 that even we would stop using cars completely you could not see that in world graph

Here in Canary Islands

Gas 98 --> 0.79 €/litre
Gas 95 --> 0.70 €/litre
Diesel ---> 0.64 €/litre

of course, it goes up and down every day

There's something going on, this price isn't justified by any means. The petrol cartel is trying something. Don't believe the "market inestability" news, they are just bullshit. "Ministry of Truth bullshit"

Today's prices are...

$3.69

Was
Gas
Lowest
$2.99
Highest
$3.25

Diesel
Lowest
$3.39

$3.59

Price at the one and only fuel station in the town I live is 101.99p right now for normal unleaded, the cheapest I've found within a 15 mile radius is 99.9p at a Shell station.

I haven't seen a petrol station today with petrol for less then £1 a litre. Diesel is about £1.05/ litre.

Slightly off topic - and a dumbass question! What is autogas used for - cos its a hell of a lot cheaper than petrol!!!

Here: Diesel 1.34€ per litre

I never bother looking at the prices. I need fuel, so I get fuel.

And I only use Shell V-Power (Optimax was a much nicer name). If I can't get that, then BP Ultimate. If I can't get that then Total's equivalent. At a push I'll take Tesco99.

I might consider normal unleaded in an emergency. But I'd rather walk/call for a tow, than put supermarket fuel in anything better than a mower.

Edit: And it's not because I'm well off enough to not worry about the cost of fuel - I'm struggling to make ends meet as it is - but the price of fuel makes no difference. Without fuel life becomes difficult. I can always sacrifice Autosport or something.

I bet Autosport is not enough to make up 40e/month

CALIFORNIA:
3.98 is the highest
3.80 is the lowest
at least as far as i've seen in the san francisco area

Why are you so against normal unleaded fuel? Just curious, when I put a tank of V-Power in my 106 it had slight backfire, although it did run well on it. Suppose because the higher octane rating, but I can't re-time my car for it (distributor-less ignition).

Supermarket forecourt fuel I wouldn't let near my car, drives like its watered down or something. Must be a reason its cheaper than normal stuff.

Great. There you go blowing away our cunningly crafted illusion of military presence! We had them all fooled, I tell ya. Fooled! But you just had to spoil it didn't you? Sheesh...
