The sales cost FOB is $0.69 per litre.

Interesting thanks. What does that usually translate to in either CIF or DDP UK?

I suspect that has gone up of late what with the recent Houthis pirate thing.

We sell to traders, FOB, the chartering and insurance is down to them, we do not really know where the fuel ends up.

I was just trying to illustrate market prices of the fuel and where the markup actually comes from.

[nickfrog]

Yes sure and you succeeded! I am wild guessing the freight and insurance would be around 1% on top.

189.9p a litre for diesel at Stracathto services. I’m glad it went on the company fuel card and I’m not paying for it.

Noticed earlier today my local Tesco (which is always the cheapest) has increased diesel by 4ppl, now at 154.9ppl

Most of the garages around here have increased their prices by 3p per litre over the last week or so.

News today is reporting $100 per barrel is coming around May time. Last time it went like that was summer 2022 and petrol was getting close to £2/l

Glad Ive got an EV. Immune to these petrol price rises….








That should get the anti ev frothers going. I noticed a tank of tesco 99 was about a £10 more this fill for my fun car.

[clockworks]

Ouch. Unfortunately it’s going back that way.

My local Tescos, 3 miles away is 140.9p The next nearest 8 miles away is 143.9p and its way bigger.....weird

Filled up the car last night. 152.9 for regular 95 unleaded here in W Kent. Shot up quite a bit in the last few weeks.

145.9 in Notts for UL.

Spent last week in Abu Dhabi and it’s the equivalent of about 6 pence per litre….

We've got used to thinking 1.40 was cheap, time to get it right back to 1.80+ to bring it down and settle at 1.50 odds to think that's cheap.

Still worth it. Stuff using an EV.

Sainsburys up 1p today to 145.9 rip off Shell garage in town 157.9 robbin barstewards.

Or have an EV and an ICE car like me? fk paying £90 for 400 miles when I can pay £20 for the same distance.
