Description
People living in the Highlands have long been used to higher fuel prices, even before the recent rapid rise in costs.
The RAC estimates that the average price for a litre of petrol in the UK has increased to 182.31p and 188.05p for diesel, the fuel of choice for many in the region.
But in many parts of the Highlands, petrol now costs just a few pennies short of £2. And at one filling station at Cluanie in Glen Shiel, it costs 208.7p for petrol and 221.7p for diesel.
The AA says prices have historically been high in the Highlands because smaller stations sell very low volumes of fuel, so recouping their costs is much harder.
