Try Vat and duty making it about 142p per litre

Yep, VAT is added on after the other taxes have been added on

142p per litre

To paraphrase that great English philosopher Marin Man: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

There would be politicians swinging from the trees here at those prices.

I should have made myself clearer. do you pay the VAT on the price of just the litre of fuel, or on the sum of the fuel and the taxes. Here the fuel is about 35p. There's another 30p of taxes, then there's our 13% VAT paid on that 65p (about 8p) for a total of about 72p/l.

Nice one... try our 20% VAT for size. Real Value Added value.....

Nothing like a bit of panic buying to raise the price even more :roll:

The price is getting silly now, everything that requires fuel for deliveries will end up costing so much more.

I'm still trying to figure out how you rationalize going past the end of the driveway in your Merc.
