Is it currently cheaper to fill up in Dover or Calais? (Unleaded).

From the Daily Mail in June 2012At £1.49 per litre in France and £1.48 in Belgium, motorists are advised to fill up n this side of the Channel where unleaded fuel costs 13-14p less per litre.

Carrefour Calais 1.529 euro per litre for standard unleaded so at say conversion of 1.22 this equates to £1.25 or if using Clarity £1.21 per litre.0

I crossed over twice in the last few months and the difference was minimal both times(atleast it was for my 40 litre tank).0

Thanks everyone. Will probably not stress too much about it and just fill up when I need to. Not like the old days when you'd fill your boots in Calais!0
