Just browsing on Google maps, conveniently went past a fuel station. Look at the fuel price in 2009!

The thing is we thought the price was shite then

That same garage is now £1.42.9 for petrol and £1.47.9 for diesel

£1.50 by summer, £2.00 by the end of the year.

Same here - we're getting well and truly screwed

I'm hoping you're wrong

It's one thing that'll kill off v6 migs...

Much speculation by banks pushing price up at the moment, with cheap money from QE and LTRO, at some point there will be a correction and prices per barrel will drop.

There has been a slight drop this week where China's economy is slowing down.

I will let you guess on the effect this will have on UK prices.

i can never get over the fact that most larger  vans now cost in excess of £100 to fill up mines about £120 ker ching. in the good old days i used to run 4 vans to London every day  i would dread to think what that would cost now and of course theres congestion charges etc etc and people ask me why i dont work in London anymore just worked it out £180 per day over a £1k a week on fuel alone

Just checked up and the highest price for petrol at the min is £149.9 
Seems it will be hitting £1.50 sooner than we thought , now where's that manual about running a car on cow dung .

The way its going, within a couple of years the average family will not be able to drive a car like we do on a regular basis 

Nearly 7 quid a gallon on a car that does 25 to the gallon is imposible to justify.
Then you stick 200 od quid stealth  road tax then just to finish it off, we have the great insurance swindle 

Thats why (with my last wage packet) I converted mine to lpg.

See it on here where people are weighing up the options between breaking there cars up for money / spares or selling them on.
Soon, imho they won't be many people owning then to sell your bits too

Facking hell......and I thought it was expensive enough way back then.

Get used to it... because even if oil drops to $20 a barrel and the pound became strong again they wouldn't let prices drop because of the duty and VAT they take!!!
