Just out of curiosity how much are you paying for a litre of petrol where you live. Not the fancy stuff just the regular unleaded stuff (95RON)

£1.069 a litre for me

Conversions
3.78 Litres to the US gallon
4.54 Litres to the UK gallon
 
Gas prices

Here in Honolulu, Hawaii, the best local price for "regular" 87 octane (R+M)/2 gas costs $3.61/gallon. 92 octane is $3.81/gallon or 5.5% higher.

Diesel is $4.22/gallon

Regular gas comes thus is 0.96 USD/liter = 4.33 USD/UK gallon

or 0.62 euro/liter

is my math okay?
 
Canmore, Canada gas

$1.25l regular and $1.33l for the good stuff. Exxon just reported $11 billion first quarter profit - glad I can help them out in their time of need.
 
San Francisco, Ca: a SOMA Shell station listed:

reg = $4.29 p/gal
super = $4.49 p/gal

just over the bridge heading east it appears to drop 30-50 cents a gallon....

In Australia - fluctuates every day or so between $1.45 - $ 1.59 pl Premium 98RON - under premium is usually .10c pl cheaper - all depends on state/location but generally steadily increasing. Diesel is typically .10c pl above premium.
 
Southern nevada, the cheap stuff is $3.53/ US gallon, the premium is $3.74/ US gallon.

Malc, is my figuring is half-way corect, you are paying about $8.00 USD per US gallon, no? (Based on the ballpark exchange rate of $2 USD per Pound?)
 
The real tragedy is the cost of beer, not the cost of fuel. The average cost of a pint in London is creeping towards 4 quid. :shock:

Prices of a pint of quality microbrew here in the US are still generally below US$4 a pint. But you gotta watch 'em, they sneak in those thick bottom glasses in some places and you only get 12 or 13 oz, not a full pint. :evil:

Now that's a Friday kind of thing! :p
 
What shall i say, here in Vienna?
We get the Soccer European Mastership here in one month, the raise the price up to 3,70€ minimum for a 0,5 litre beer, but its the real Budweiser, from Czech Republic, not the "stuff" from America.... :twisted:

Yeap that's about right..... scary
 
heh heh

Y'all just keep those gas guzzling cars going, 'kay? The wife gets royalty checks thanks to some moves on her long-departed grandfather's legal business, and one came today... whooooopeeeeee! Hotcha!

gotta marry right, guys! Truly, I did not see this coming, those long years ago when the hottie moved in with me. I didn't see her gaining 60 pounds either, so ya winsome, lose some. Was I the bug or the windshield?

Joke: why do men die before their wives? Because they want to!
 
Hey Malc E1.34/litre, 4.54ltres/UKGallon=£4.78/UKG orUS$9.43/gallon

a pint in a pub here costs E4 and a Heineken or Millers around E2/500ml
 
Yeah, the oil companies make good money, but taxes on gas account for more coin than the oil company profit. I don't think the government has to lift a finger or invest a dime to get their cut.-Paul
 
Reading Honolulus post, it's always right time and place.
1963 my Late father dragged his family and a caravan(Mobile Home) behind an AMC Rambler through about a 1000miles of soft sand in Mozambique.
Bumped into a lot of American accents driving Gulf Oil Africa jeeps up there.
when he go back to South Afica he queitly bought some shares in Gulf Oil .
Mozambique's Gas fields are still there, met Red Adair once up there, as are Angola's, but those too few shares in retrospect became very tidy when Nigeria came in.
