in August, with ULP93 petrol the only fuel currently showing a decrease. But, says the Automobile Association , this is likely to change in the next two weeks.
Based on the current data, ULP95 petrol is showing an increase of about seven cents a litre, while ULP93 is showing a nominal decrease of just over 1c/.
