Fuel prices are dropping, so we’ve put together the latest petrol and diesel costs at petrol stations in south east London.

In June, the price of petrol dropped by about three pence per litre, bringing the average price of unleaded petrol to below £1.45 per litre and diesel to below £1.50 per litre.

The price you pay for petrol and diesel is determined by wholesale fuel prices, which are influenced by the global price of crude oil, distribution costs, retailer profit margins, fuel duty (currently 52.95p per litre), and VAT (currently 20 per cent).

Diesel prices have been reduced by fuel stations quicker than unleaded in recent weeks, but both should continue to do so, although the rate at which diesel drops compared to unleaded may well slow.
