Do you know where that was taken? It looks like Brinsworth House in Twickenham.

Yes - I think that was the caption.

That is very interesting...

Now,
Inflation since 1982 = x 4.52 (source ONS)
ie Price equivalent = £1.7 x 4.52 = £7.68 per gallon

Recent price of £1.70 per litre
at 4.55 litre per gallon,
That is £1.7*4.55 = £7.35 per gallon

ie petrol is now cheaper in real terms than in 1982
