It's around 91p/litre here in the UK. That's equivalent to $5.74 a gallon.

Poor Hannify. The purchasing power of the NZ dollar is 14% under valued. That means that you pay 14% more for your petrol because the exchange rate is low.

Right, this took a bit of doing, but calculating US gallons into litres (petrol is sold in litres in Europe), then doing a currency conversion, a US gallon of unleaded petrol costs approx. $6.44 in Dublin, Ireland...
