Just over a year after petrol prices in the UK soared to £2 a litre, prices are now set to drop across the country.

Drivers are getting a better deal when they fill up their cars as prices are set to drop just in time for the summer holidays, according to the RAC.

On average, you can get a litre of diesel for 145.69p and a litre of unleaded for 150.93p.
