It represents a 10.5 per cent average price drop across the board.
Paddy Comyn from the AA said the price falls offer “some respite for motorists as they head into the festive season”.
“There is no firm indication on how long these prices will last, but for now, they give consumers some slight respite against ever-increasing prices,” he said.
