A little bird tells me that's pretty inexpensive compared to us :-}

Down here in the sunny SouthWest I'm shelling out $8.93 equivalent.

(£1.19 per litre, 95 octane regular unleaded).

My 3.2 Eos will tolerate 95, but prefers 97/98, which would run $9.53

Premium is supposed to give better gas mileage, but I'd have to get 30.5 
mpg to break even on that (95 gives 28.5 on the runs I do which is 
pretty good for that size of engine).
