The cheapest places to buy petrol in Suffolk in February 2024 have been revealed.
According to the RAC, the price of filling up your car with petrol has gone up by 3p a litre in the last three weeks.
Unleaded has risen by 3.2p from 140.2p on 29 January to 143.4p on February 18 and diesel has shot up from 148p to 152p in the same period, despite a downward trend in the three months prior.
RAC fuel spokesman Simon Williams said: “News that fuel prices have bottomed out and are now on the rise again is bad news for drivers, and possibly the economy and future inflation rates, too.
“While we’re not expecting prices to shoot up dramatically, it appears that oil is trading up, which in the absence of a stronger pound, means wholesale fuel costs more for retailers to buy in. The result is higher prices at the pump and more expense for the every day driver."
