Answer 2

holland no doubt

Answer 3

Basically, using the AA site as a guide then working on the assumption that diesel is (all average prices in pence per litre) 131.7 p/litre in the UK http://www.theaa.com/motoring_advice/fue... and 115.92 p/litre NL, then top up in NL when you get over here.  However don't run it on emtpy as depending on what time you get over, you may have a problem as many garages are not open 24/7

Then the price for Germany is 118.62, so top up in NL again before you cross over.  Indeed Austria is the cheapest at Austria 110.04

Answer 4

Holland if you can-cheaper.

Answer 5

I would reccomend to drive in higher gears, to save fuel and also fill up when your tank is nearly empty also to save weight.

Answer 6

holland i reckon! and fuel is CHEAPER IN AUSTRIA THAN IN GERMANY!

Answer 7

Actual average prices for diesel as of today are: (Euro per Liter / Dollar per gallon)

United Kingdom: 1,788 / 10,58

Netherlands: 1,463 / 8,65

Germany: 1,498 / 8,86

Austria: 1,374 / 8,13

So I would recommend to fill up before the Dutch-German boarder and try to make it through Germany without filling up. With a diesel car you should well be able to, since the distance from Durch to Austrian boarder ranges between 708 and 846 kilometers.

If you should run out of gas before the austrian boarder fill up only the amount required to bring you into Austria.

Answer 8

Diesel is more expensive than petrol in UK for some reason.

On the continent Diesel is a lot cheaper than petrol and a lot cheaper than in UK.
