Only if demand reduces to the levels they were in the first lockdown when petrol was 99p a litre!

Re: Fuel prices
We are there now at our local garage. £1.52.9 at Thornfalcon on the A358 link road between the M5 and the A303. It's causing chaos as the forecourt is full and trafffiic is queuing trying to get in and out. A few days ago whilst waiting in line I thought it was going to be fisticuffs between the builder queuing behind me and a queue jumper. The air was blue with the language. I went to pay and advised the 2 young lady's at the till who witnessed the situation to lock the entrance door when I left. It's all on camera.
At the last count:- Peugeot 531 pro, Dawes Discovery Tandem, Dawes Kingpin X3, Raleigh 20 stowaway X2, 1965 Moulton deluxe, Falcon K2 MTB dropped bar tourer, Rudge Bi frame folder, Longstaff trike conversion on a Giant XTC 840
Re: Fuel prices
Lowest price I've seen so far was £1.57 in North Wales near Bala earlier in the week.

That would seem quite cheap for a 'mini pork pie party pack of six" get a few mile out of them!
Re: Fuel prices
One or two small petrol stations near here have dipped their petrol prices below £1.50 per litre this week, which is 3p lower than Tesco.
Re: Fuel prices
Locally, diesel holds a 25p premium over petrol. It's still above £1.82/litre

Bought my dirty diesel (50+ mpg) on 5th October and filled the tank. Done a couple of long trips since then. Have yet to refill

Re: Fuel prices
So, your recent plan was to add 5 tons of carbon to the environment? And exploit those impoverished youngsters digging up the rare minerals. Well done!

Re: Fuel prices
Just under £1.60 for petrol here in North Yorks, diesel around 25ppl more - it's usually more at this time of year with the high demand for heating oil. The days of diesel being cheaper than petrol are long gone in the UK and most other European countries, only Denmark, Greece and The Netherlands have cheaper diesel than petrol at the moment.
Think I will sort out a good restaurant or hotel which has a reliable supply of waste cooking oil.
Re: Fuel prices
Just filled up this afternoon at 157.9 per litre for unleaded at the Co-op up the hill.

Re: Fuel prices
Seen £1.55 here in the land of cider and cheddar and diesel down to £1.785. not down enough yet to tempt me to fill up. But, as observed earlier low prices means bees around honeypots.
