Car smells of petrol?

I can smell petrol inside my car when driving. Not overfilled the car and not spilt fuel. Can smell it when I get in the car in the morning and very strong when driving - not all the time but every few miles.

Then you might have a leak which is very dangerous. Get it attended to immediately.
