The same here in Holland. Diesel costs now €1.33 per liter and petrol (euro 95!) is about €1.55 per liter, with big differences between petrol stations, and prices still rising.

We pay more "roadtax" for driving a diesel using car and buying a diesel car is more expensive, though, so there is a break-even point on which the experts (read: my colleagues ;o) don't seem to agree. Some claim a breakeven of 15.000 km per year, others go as high as 30.000 km a year.
