The weekly change compares the same 137 filling stations with an unleaded price on both days, so a station dropping out of the figures does not move it.

58 of the 156 stations seen during the week changed at least one price.

The cheapest unleaded in London on Sunday 25 October 2026 was 165.9p at Greenman Service Station, London (E11 1PP); the most expensive was 179.9p at Shell Little Waitrose Bayswater, London (W2 3HT), a gap of 14.0p, or £7.00 on a 50-litre tank.

The cheapest diesel was 189.9p at Sainsburys Beckton, London (E6 6JF).

Across the UK, unleaded was down 0.7p over the same week, at 173.0p, which puts London 0.7p above the national average.

"Drivers in London paid 0.6p less for a litre of unleaded this week. On a 50-litre tank, that is £0.30 less than a week earlier. The gap between the cheapest and the dearest forecourt in London is 14.0p, so where you fill up still matters more than when." said Jacky A., editor of fuelpricetoday.co.uk.

How the figures are computed

Each average is the mean of the prices changed in the last 30 days at the filling stations of London, motorway services left out and prices more than 25p from the day's median discarded. The cheapest and most expensive stations are judged against the stations within 10 km, so that a typing error cannot top the list. The week runs from Monday to Sunday. Details on how this site works.
