95 octane is now 0.8 e/l and diesel 0,75 e/l. 92 and 80 are littel bit cheaper. Price is from Svetogorsk near Finland border in western Russia.

Well the British use a bizarre melange of units so that its neither metric nor imperial nor logical.

Fuel is bought per litre. No one under 50 in the UK really knows how many "gallons" it takes to fill up their vehicle. But they do know how many litres it takes. Volume for fuel is therefore completely metric. (volume for mind you is still imperial pints).

That also implies that no one in the UK has a clue what the fuel price is in terms of pounds per gallon, as we dont buy gallons, we only buy litres.

Distance for vehicle journeys in the UK however, is exclusively in miles.

So guess what the British use for measuring fuel economy? Miles Per Gallon (imperial gallon). Its absurd frankly. No one knows anything about how many gallons they have, or are using, or have bought .... but they measure consumption in miles per gallon. It has become just a random figure that no-one understands or calculates, but people have a gut feel for what is good and what is bad, while have no real meaning that they can pin down. People just kinda KNOW that if you buy a small family car that gets 80 mpg, then its GOOD, or that if a car gets 30 mpg that its BAD. Its merely a vague numerical reference point, somewhat like an index, that has no real meaning, since no-one actually knows how many gallons they used since the last fill up.

That's pretty funny. Your units of measure for GOOD and BAD are different too: In the US a car that get 30 mpg is GOOD! (BAD would be something like 6 mpg). The little bit extra you get in an imperial gallon only accounts for a tiny bit of the difference. And all of this is completely irrelevant to the price of fuel in Mongolia

that clears it up
next question...howmany liters is a pint ?

ontopic
is the price of fuel in mongolia jumping up and down like over here or is it more stable?

1 pint = 568ml
1 litre = 1.76 pints

Fuel in Russia has steadily increased since I last reported in early October. Currently 95 octane petrol costs 29.0 -29.8 Руб/Ltr around Moscow.

(And despite telling us it is a crazy measurement, Colebatch still allowed\me to buy him a 'pint' earlier today! No confusion.)
