In 1976, the price of petrol in the UK was approximately 30 pence per litre. This price reflected the broader economic conditions of the time, including the aftermath of the 1973 oil crisis. Petrol prices varied slightly depending on the region and specific fuel stations, but 30 pence per litre was a general benchmark for that year.
In thr UK in the early 1960s, a gallon of petrol cost from four shillings to five shillings, 20 to 25 pence in modern currency.
Yes, petrol prices will move slightly to reflect the oil price, although in the UK the the oil cost is a very small part of the price per litre, tax and fuel duty makes up the majority of the cost. Also as petrol if produced through fractal distillation (separation of crude oil) the price of petrol is most likely to increase slightly through the price of oil.
About £1.35 for a litre of petrol, over £1.40 per litre of diesel.
In 1964, the price of petrol in the UK was approximately 4 shillings per gallon, which is equivalent to about 20 pence in today's currency. This price reflects the economic conditions of the time, including the regulatory environment and fuel taxation. Over the decades, petrol prices have increased significantly due to various factors including inflation, changes in oil prices, and taxation policies.
