I think that UK is probably one of the most exprensive rip-off countries in the world.

When I live in the Middle East, petrol was cheaper than water - literally.

http://www.petrolprices.com is a good site for checking on the cheapest fuel in any area of the UK \:\)

I guess all petrol stations will pass on the 2p a litre price increase made by the government \:\(

1 United Kingdom Pounds = 2.04059 US Dollars
1 USD = 0.490054 GBP

1 Liter = 0.264172052358148 Gallons
1 Gallon = 3.785411784 Liters

Current average fuel costs for unleaded in London area = 96.9p (pence) per liter


So taking 3.785411784 Liters to get 1 gallon = 3.785411784 * 96.9 = 366.8064018696p
Then converting the p to GBP = 3.66 then converting 3.66GBP to US Dollar = 7.46917 USD

So on average in Essex, London the cost for 1 US Gallon is: $7.47
Weekly U.S. Retail Gasoline Prices, Regular Grade
shows about $2.80 per gallon so we pay about 63% less here in the US for Gasonline.



Okay we'll quit crying about the price of gas here in the US for now

Anytime an American complains to me about gas prices, I tell them to go live in Australia for a while. \:\)
