Price of petrol in Oz?

[johnsZ06]

My wife and I lived in SA many years ago and gas was comparable to US prices. I was wondering what is it now?

Sure wish I was back there!

Up in the Northern Territory (Darwin) we pay approx $AU1.38 for regular unleaded (91RON) and $AU1.63 for BP Ultimate (98RON). Bit cheaper in southern states

Wow, that's more than I expected.

Current exchange rate is $1.00 US = $1.32 AU x 4 so apprx $4.00 for a gallon!

Check out the world wide gas prices I got of off CNN's web site! The prices are for a gallon in US currency. The folks in Venezuela have it made...gas wise that is.

By SA did you mean South Africa or something else? If you meant South Africa I was just there in January and the prices were about $2.60 in both Capetown and Joburg/Pretoria area.

Who needs roads! At that price, i could afford to drive a tank!!! Or a duramax...

[ringram]

I lived in South Australia from 74-77. It was a great experience! I wouldn't mind going back.

It costs as much to fill my tank as a reasonable dinner and drinks for myself and girlfriend. About R330 I think its R6.31 a litre. (R=Rand)

Course when you convert our monopoly money to real money it skews things a bit.
R6.26 to US$ and about R4.90 to Aus$
