£1.12 a litre of petrol. £1.27 a litre of diesel. No wonder everything is so expensive, and the country's in a mess.

We spend an absolute fortune on petrol going back n forth to Manchester, we have no choice we have to go and we want to go too. But these prices put a strain on everyones pocket regardless of circumstances.

Blimey, for once in my recent life going to take train to London next month, got two returns from Leeds for a grand sum of £40. Much cheaper than driving Smiley

why Luxembourg?

Cheapest in Europe apparently, and it obviously doesn't produce any of its own.

nah, luxemburg at least 50% higher than ukraine (approx 50p/l) and I think greece, slovenia, estonia, lithuania, spain and switzerland are all cheaper than lux too

lol, listen to the blonde expert here - just because you got lost trying to find dtd and went thru all these countries at least once doesnt make you an expert on world fuel prices!! Cheesy
