Yet, a month or so ago, I was paying £1.23 per litre of petrol!

I hear that not many people drive in Japan due to lack of parking spaces and other problems, but what are petrol prices like for you? Or if your not in Japan, what are petrol prices like in your part of the world?

On a separate note, do you think driving is cheaper than public transport?

Just to put this in perspective: £1 = ¥135 = $1.45(USD) at the current exchange rate.

Comments?
You were lucky, I remember paying £1.36 per litre for crappy standard unleaded.

Now that it is cheaper, I can buy High Octane for around 88p. I'm really glad it has gone down, it was starting to hurt my pocket.

Public transport is definitely cheaper, but driving is more convenient.
