Fuel Costs Comparison by Country

At the time of writing there is little difference in fuel prices between England Wales and Northern Ireand, however Scotland does appear to have consistently cheaper fuel across the board (unleaded, diesel and LPG) on average, .

This cheaper fuel is probably because most of the fuel refineries are in Scotland or the North of England, thus reducing the overall transport costs to the petrol stations in this area. It seems that this price saving is being passed onto the consumer. Alternatively it could just be down to the general price of living being lower in Scotland, wages and property rental are both lower and so the running costs of the fuel stations will in turn be lower.

Wales often has the highest fuel prices for Unleaded, Diesel and LPG. This is probably due to the large rural areas of Wales pulling the prices up whilst the relatively small towns and cities (compared to Scotland and England) are not providing such a balance to the price of petrol.

There are of course exceptions with large regional difference in the different countries themselves. For example the Scottish Islands have the highest fuel prices in the country, often 5-10p per litre higher than main land UK, again this is down to transport costs.

There is also a large difference between different petrol retailers
