People's perennial complaints about the amount of money burnt (excuse the pun!) on buying petrol have finally fallen on the listening ears. A British car insurance company Staveley Head, in collaboration with This Is Money website, conducted a research to find out where it is the cheapest to buy petrol across the world.

Predictably or not, it was predominantly oil-rich countries that appeared to offer the best petrol deal to their automotorists: Egypt, Lybia, Oman, and Kuwait. The former USSR Republic of Turkmenistan found itself the fourth cheapest: people there only pay 12p per litre. The cheapest petrol - 2p per litre - is sold in Caracas in Venezuela.
