How much is fuel over your end of the world people ? If anyone is good at converting the prices it costs between 92-99 pence per litre over here. Been pushing 1 GBP per litre recently .......

$AUD 1.40-$1.50 works out to be about 57-62p/litre.
Doing the reverse calculation for what youngkwak's paying,thats $2.40-$2.42/litre. FCUK ME.

......was 2.80 EURO a litre
or 'bout Oz $4.70

coz I sure no-one would believe me

I believe you, maybe because I live in Turkey. That could've been 2.80 Turkish Lira which is 2.80aud. It is now around 3aud/litre and going up. Apparently we have the most expensive fuel in the world.Smitty wrote:Mikemike-s wrote:$AUD 1.40-$1.50 works out to be about 57-62p/litre.

By the way, the cheapest petrol station is supposedly on Bay street port melbourne..... It looks like it is about halfway down the shopping strip but there is no petrol station there....

according to the rest of the world we do have cheap fuel.
for us to be on par with the rest of the world we would have to pay something like $2.20 per litre.
People always bitch and moan about fuel prices. If ur not happy there are plenty of option:
- Diesel cars
- Hybrid cars
- Public transport
- Pushy
- Walking

and it should be cheaper!mrmina wrote:according to the rest of the world we do have cheap fuel.
coz we are still 80% self sufficient in fuel grade oil
...cept the guvmint said
lets use the Singapore pricing regime for fuel
which is based on a worldparity pricing scheme
and so
petrol is dearer here and ,the guvmint gets more excise
and GST ..and so our petrol is dearer than it should be
