That is really expensive! Yesterday I looked to see what diesel was as I am sure prices increase every time the schools are on holiday. Half-term here right now and price for diesel is £1.32 a litre.
Even more of a shock is if you convert these to cost per gallon (multiply by 4.54609). The cost per litre seems to 'hide' this but it's how we used to buy fuel:
£1.66 a litre equates to £7.54 a gallon
£1.32 a litre equates to £6.02 a gallon
Extortionate isn't it and the majority of it is tax!
