Same around here. Most places now are 99.9p litre. I would imagine the motorways are more, but I haven't travelled on one for nearly two weeks.Matt

Locally on the Isle of Wight the price of diesel seems to be going up every week at the moment, is this national?
I think so. Much in the news about it and Five Live were running a fetaure on fuel prices this morning. Typical blame points being:
* Uncertainty over Iran and the USA ( )
* Refining capacity (USA) reduced due to Hurricane
* Seasonal peak for fuel in the US means they're buying from Europe which causes the prices to rise.
I heard we're looking at Diesel braking the £1 / litre this year for the average but not quite for PetrolD3 HSE V8...

From my experience, the one to avoid is Texaco .... those RIP OFF B***ARDS always seem to charge the most no matter where the location ... boycott them at all costs !!!!
At least Shell & Esso seem to be keeping prices at a more resonable level (if that's possible in this RIP OFF country !!!)
