The average prices in bristol are:

Unleaded 94.3p per litre
Diesal 95.6p per litre

US prices per gallon:

Unleaded $7.13
Diesel $7.23

about 65% of that price is tax

Went past the $7.50 (per US gallon) last year during the international crude price rises.

Electricity and gas (heating not petrol) prices have risen by something like 20-30% in the last year. Luckily global warming gave us a mild winter

I would bet Cal has a hefty amount of state taxes charged opposed to other some other states... between Corpus and Houston is the refinery powerhouse in the US I believe.
