Five cheapest petrol stations in Aylesbury as RAC issues price hike warning

With this in mind, drivers may be tempted to fill up before the costs go up further.

Analysis from RAC Fuel Watch, outlines that the decreasing pump prices of the past three months is due to finish with tensions in the Middle East triggering a sudden reversal, pushing the average cost of petrol up by 2p per litre.

Unleaded now costs 134.17p a litre on average, up 2p since the start of last month meaning the cost to fill a 55-litre family car stands at £73.79 (£1.07 more than at the start of the month). The price of diesel went up even more – by nearly 3p (2.8p) a litre, from 138.39p at the start to 141.21p at the end. This added £1.55 to the cost a household pays to fill a family car.

Supermarket prices saw below-average increases last month, with petrol up 1.3p from 128.96p to 130.26p, while diesel rose by 1.6p from 135.06p to 136.67p. But it’s once again drivers in Northern Ireland who benefit from the cheapest visits to the forecourt – a litre of unleaded there costs 128p on average, around 6p less than the average across the whole of the UK, with diesel at 134p.
