Here in Shropshire it is still the same way round as always with petrol cheaper. And here's me with a Diesel car!

thank goodness lol

always get mine from morrisons

saw petrol at 108.9 and diesel at 105.9 at whitby last weekend.seems to be creeping up by 1 to 2p a week round our way.

At last at our Tesco diesel is cheaper than unleaded. For such a long time unleaded was 13p, yes 13p cheaper than diesel. But the prices has gone up 2p/ltre in the last week or so.

this 'reversal' in fuel pricing is alledgedly down to a surplus of diesel (due to so many trucks being taken off the road due to the recession) and a shortage in the USA of unleaded product for the big gas guzzlers.

Wonder how big the difference will go to and if it will stay that way in the long term

I'm showing my age now, but I remember when diesel was always a few pence cheaper than petrol before it became so popular in cars. Mind you, I also remember when it was priced by the gallon.

I also remember that it wasn't that long ago but around here it is still cheaper for petrol worse luck

deisel is on average 105.9 here

I've noticed this in the last week or so - I thought it was a mistake at first...however

LPG for the win -

47.5p per litre

I traded my Diesel in this year for a petrol luxo barge - V8 luxury goodness for better than diesel running costs.
