Anyone planning to fill up their car with petrol or diesel in the next few days has been issued a warning by the RAC that prices are set to rise once again.
Retailers have been criticised for failing to fully reflect the fall in wholesale prices. Wholesale diesel costs have plunged 32p per litre - but the pump price has only fallen by 20p in the same period.
Petrol costs have plunged by 23p in the same period while prices at the forecourt have only been reduced by 18p. The automotive company said, as a result, motorists are often paying over the odds.
