New figures reveal that petrol prices have fallen for the first time this year.

Analysis by the PA news agency showed that average prices across UK forecourts reached an eight-year high this summer after rising for 39 consecutive weeks.

But Government figures show a reduction of a fraction of 1p per litre was recorded on August 23.

Motorists are typically being charged £1.35 per litre for petrol, with a litre of diesel costing £1.37.

In May last year, average costs for a litre of fuel were £1.05 for petrol and £1.12 for diesel, as the global shutdown caused by the coronavirus pandemic led to a collapse in oil prices.

Since then, the cost of filling up a 55-litre family car has risen by around £17 for petrol and £14 for diesel.
