UK petrol jumped to a fresh record, bringing the cost of filling a 55-litre family car to £102.86, according to the RAC motoring organization.
The average UK price reached 187.01 pence ($2.27) a litre on Wednesday, with diesel also hitting a fresh record at 193.30 pence a litre. Yet despite the unprecedented costs, there’s no sign of a big downturn in recent fuel sales.
