19 month year 18000 miles UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Germany, Italy. Campsites and off Grid.
I know every penny counts these days, but 🤔 even 10p / litre difference is only about 25 miles driving on a tank full

You could spoil your holiday worrying

The ferry / tunnel cost is the killer for us at the moment, spending our pensions in the U.K. for now 👍

90 litre tank. 10p per litre. £9 on a tank full. £9 is £9 to me. Couple of pints or a nice kebab. Worth a quick look on a petrol price app for.

Actually so a 20p difference in prices yesterday within 2 miles.

Hi there folks, we noticed that Calais is not cheap and so filled up long before we came to the port on the way home last time. The cheapest fule we have seen in the UK is at COSTCO - if you have an account. It is usually 10 - 12p cheaper than other places. We do get funny looks when we pull in to the line in the Motorhome but what the heck.
You can also pick up a box of brownies and a case of beer so all good.

French diesel seems to last longer! :dance2:

When I take it easy driving along D roads with light traffic, not only is it less stressful compared to driving on UK roads, but I get better mpg, even up to 36 mpg compared with 29 mpg in the UK.

Yes I did notice how French pump prices were a bit higher than in the UK but still worth it. :france:

Someone will be along bleating “Rip off Britain’ soon enough

Just back, calculated circa €500 from Cherbourg to Roses Spain each way in ‘Gazole’ and Class three toll charges in our Winnebago getting 18 - 20 MPG

€2.30 we saw at one BP service station!

Thats why I went for posh stuff for an extra cent.

I don’t know where these prices are gathered but I haven’t paid more than €1.70 for diesel in Germany.
Paid 1.82 euros at dachau Germany today.
