Missed this at the time.

At present, the cheapest petrol (gas) near me is £1.31 per litre, which equals £5.96 per UK gallon. Or $9.70 per UK gallon at todays online exchange rate!

I have two cars, one of which is a 3-litre petrol (Subaru Legacy) the other is a 1.9-litre Alfa Romeo diesel.

Diesel is currently £1.39/litre or £6.32/$10.30 per UK gallon.



Can't be bothered working out the price per US Gallon, but it's not good!

Edit: Right, it bugged me, OK?

1 UK gallon = 1.20095 US gallons, or 1 US gallon = 0.83267 UK gallon.

So, petrol = $8.08/US Gallon, diesel = $8.58/US Gallon.

I think I'll go for a lie down now ……
