You bet yo' ass it's expensive here. I looked it up: the price at the nearest gas station is 1,65 euro ($2,28) per liter, and $0.96 per liter in the US according to Wolfram. Not that it's more expensive to make or to haul over here: the difference is all in taxes. Here's a Dutch news article which says that regardless of the oil price, the petrol tax is 72 cents, there's an additional levy and on top of that there's 19% regular VAT.
