In the UK I was filling up the other day and reflecting how I'd being paying the exact same price 10 years ago. My current car costs me 15p/mile to drive. Back in 2000 I remember it was costing me about 13p/mile -- that was in a car with worse mpg, but either way it feels it's never been cheaper to drive in the UK. In 2004 it was 80p a litre, or £1.57 in today's money [1]. I filled up for well under £1.49 - I don't recall exactly. In 2008 petrol peaked at £1.20 or £2.05 in today's money, about the same peak as last year's £1.90 a litre. In real terms petrol today is well below 2018 levels [0] https://www.racfoundation.org/data/uk-pump-prices-over-time https://www.racfoundation.org/data/uk-pump-prices-over-time [1] https://www.in2013dollars.com/uk/inflation/2004?amount=80 https://www.in2013dollars.com/uk/inflation/2004?amount=80
