For many months I have thought that it would be a good idea to keep a track of the price of petrol per litre. Finally I've got around to it and hope to regularly make a note of the price of unleaded petrol at the BP Garage on the corner of Old Hinckley Road and Weddington Road in Nuneaton.
As a rough guide £1.00 per litre is £4.56 per gallon, £1.09 per litre
is £5.00 per gallon, £1.15 per litre is £5.25 per gallon, £1.20 per
litre is £5.47 per gallon and £1.31 per litre is £6.00 gallon. (1 litre = 0.219 969 248 3 gallon.)
