Petrol price up again

South African motorists can expect to dig deeper into their pockets next month when the price of petrol goes up by about 20 cents a litre.

This will take fuel prices to a new record level. The total increase in the price of petrol for May and June is likely to be in the order of around 59 cents a litre. Analysts say however that there is some back-handed relief as the increase is not as much as initially feared. A steady oil-price and a stronger rand have helped to keep the price down.
