We've found Britain's highest priced bog standard petrol.
And guess what it's on sale in a village near Ashford.
The John Childs garage in Bridge Road, Brabourne, is selling standard unleaded at a staggering 129.9p a litre.
And, according to fuel price comparison site petrolprices.com, there's nowhere in the UK more expensive.
A spokeswoman for the garage said: "We are a small company, and set our prices based on what we buy the petrol in at.
"We only buy small quantities at a time which makes it more expensive. We serve a small rural community here."
We were alerted to the price after a poster - using the name Norm - responded to our appeal to find Kent's highest price.
Posters have also reported prices rising at Sainsbury's in Ashford where unleaded jumped 1p to 121.9p yesterday.
