Petrol hike another sobering reminder to invest to outperform inflation

07 November 2016 | General

Last week the price of petrol rose by over 40c. The price of 95 octane petrol has risen around R2.00 per litre since March 2016 with the inland price now at R13.05. If you fill up with 95 octane three times this month and own a car with a 40 L tank, this will now cost R1566.00 for the month - up R240.00. While this may not seem like much to some, consider that a mere 13 years ago, in 2003, it would have cost just R480.00.
