Hi - am off on holiday in a few weeks to France, but will be travelling through Belgium and Holland. Do Diesel prices vary much - would I be better off filling up abroad?
Thanks
Emma

All three are a little cheaper for Diesel, but not massively so. No strike threat over there though afaik ...0

Here is a link to the official fuel prices in France, if you click the button next to Gazole then hover the mouse over the numbered region it will show you the price per litre in Euros, lowest and highest. In the Calais area it ranges from €1.4-€1.6/litre (£1.20-£1.37 at todays BBC quoted tourist rate of £1/€1.16). Supermarkets are cheaper than Motorways for filling up. Belgium similar, not sure about Holland though.

Remember to fill up in Luxembourg. It has the cheapest prices of France, Belgium and Germany.
The prices are regulated by the Government so they are exactly the same on the Motorway as they are in Town.There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.0
