My average fill up is 30 litres.
So, when the picture was taken:
£25.17
Today, at roughly 113p/litre:
£33.90
Give or take that is an £8 increase per week. Over the year, that is:
£416

Christ, I didn't realise it cost so little this time last year 
Actually, I remember using BP Ultimate in the 12v occasionally, because it was only 2p dearer, so just over £1/litre

do you genuinely believe that they would bring prices down?
Are you deluded? Where else would they get the billions of £££s revenue from. Plus by the next General election we'll be so used to paying £2.00 p/l that they won't bring it down anyway
