UK and overseas fuel prices
November 2009
The average cost of diesel has risen to more than £5 a gallon as UK pump prices reach levels never seen before at this time of year. Fuel prices in the US have fallen over the past fortnight and there is hope that a similar downturn may provide some relief for drivers preparing for Christmas. The price of Brent Crude is $77.
