Topped up with LPG this morning at my local Shell garage ready for our ferry trip to Spain this week. The last time I filled up it was 99.9 p/L, this morning it was 129.9 p/L! That quite an increase, only a few pence cheaper than unleaded petrol.

Morrisons have also jumped in price to £1:29 from 99p a litre
Just filled up a few weeks ago so ok for the moment
Seems an unusually big jump in cost ?!

Same here in East Sussex - our local BP at Golden Cross near Hailsham shot up from .99 to 129.9 over night. The other local Asda LPG is showing .82 but it has been unavailable since last winter and they have no idea if they will restock it. I also understand there are going to be over 400 MFG owned fuel stations that will stop selling LPG from the end of 2024....this is to make way for EV charging points :rolleyes:

The vast majority of MFG’s 400 forecourts never sold LPG anyway so they can’t stop selling it. MFG was never a big player in LPG forecourt sales.

Well I guess we will be loosing our one in Golden Cross as it is owned by MFG so the nearest will be 25 odd miles away which is a bit of a pain.

£1.30 PL!
That is pure profiteering.

If you had filled up on the A19 north of Wolveston you would have paid 99p
or gone down to Thirsk it's 95p

The average price of Autogas today is £1.01p in the UK
The prices can be seen here

Anyone selling LPG at much over £1/PL is basically ripping you off.

It's worth downloading the "MyLPG.EU" app to your phone, as this gives you both the price and the availability.
