Errm, no. I was talking about the Euro zone (top table). Petrol is more expensive in France, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, Finland and Belgium. It's just a few p. (with the exception of Holland, where petrol is €1.5 per liter, but the UK is at a par with the major European economies. Places like Spain, Luxembourg and Austria are quite a bit cheaper. Diesel is a totally different story, with the UK being about 20% dearer than the rest.

Having said that. The pound is pretty much at an all-time low against the euro, so that does skew results.
