Irish motorists have noticed a drop in fuel prices recently but are now being warned that this could be only be temporary and another hike could be just around the corner.
In many forecourts across Ireland, the average price of petrol now sits at €1.77, which is 7 cent less than last month, while diesel is €1.96, down 6 cent.
One of the cheapest fuel stations in Ireland, Top on the South City Link Road in Cork is currently selling petrol at €1.65 and diesel at €1.85, according to pumps.ie. This is down from prices hitting highs of €2.20 a litre for petrol and €2.10 a litre for diesel over the summer months.
