REVEALED: The most expensive place to fill up your car in Spain… and it costs even more than the UK!

THE Balearics have the highest petrol prices in Spain and are even higher than the UK average, according to new reports.

Prices on the Spanish government-run minetad.gob.es and drive-alive.co.uk showed the average price for a litre of unleaded petrol on the islands was €1.30, compared with Spain’s €1.18 and the UK’s €1.23 averages.

The government report, which tallied the average prices of 10.000 filing stations all over Spain found the Balearics topped the list at €1.342, with Valencia coming a close second at €1.340.

Cadiz and Granada, based in Andalucia, came in joint third at €1.339.

The picture for diesel is similar with Spain’s average being €1.06 and the UK’s also €1.23, according to drive-alive.co.uk, but the Balearics wins here again with an average price of €1.428.
