Data and sources
Where does the information come from?
Pick A Pump supplies the historical price dataset used in the price trend series and provides the live fuel-price embed on the homepage. The live embed is a station-comparison service; it is separate from the historical monthly averages published on this site.
Official and industry sources are used where relevant for tax rates, fuel specifications and market context. Pages identify the source and date of figures where those details matter.
Accuracy and limitations
How to interpret the information
Historical averages are not live quotes. The published monthly series currently covers November 2024 to October 2026. Individual forecourts can charge different prices, and reported prices can change.
Calculator results are estimates. The journey calculator uses the distance, fuel economy and price entered by the visitor. Actual consumption varies with vehicle condition, traffic, weather, route and driving style.
Fuel guidance is general information. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer's specifications for fuel compatibility and check the price displayed at the forecourt before filling up.
