Diesel is more expensice now due to a change in Duty policy. Because Diesel is more poluting that petrol...they have added more duty to it. It is all to do with the amount of Sulpher and soot it produces.My phone has more Processing power than the Computers NASA used to fake the Moon LandingsComment

Which is why it's called Vehicle Licence, not road tax. Really gets up my nose when people say horse riders should pay tax. We do, through the rip-off passport scheme. Neither payment goes to upkeep of the roads - council tax does, which is why the condition of the roads varies so much between counties. No wonder there are so many 4WDs in Surrey...Originally posted by Two_Sheds View Post
OH did experiment last year with putting cooking oil into his L200, but then the supermarkets cottoned on and raised that, too. Surprise!Comment

Apparently our Tdi (Naomi) could run on cooking oil mix but my Denzel (latest Defender) can't
Anyway I think Biofuel will be a bad way to go as its production is less green than the government makes out, and will mean food shortages......
And don't get me started on the government, the economy, the budget, or 'elf 'n safety, I've been very very restrained....... *breathe in, breathe out.........Hayley B

Here here RedThorn well said mate!! It cost me £3.00 everytime I want to go and see my daughter. I live in Essex she lives in Kent, then the fuel on top of that! Now there is talk of yet another crossing nearby to ease congestion! How much will that cost us I wonder???Originally posted by RedThorn View PostAnd then condone congestion charges and thinking about extra road levies on busy roads!
Dartford crossing's debt was paid off a couple of years ago and the toll was supposed to be scrapped, but was decided to keep, 6 month's ago up by 50% 
for something that should not even still be there!
The government are just money grabing b%^&"r&s when it comes to fuel costs, road tax, congestion charges, toll fees what ever thay can come up with!!! It's us poor motorists that have to pay through the nose!

But if you cooking oil that has alredy been used (chip shops) it is great. Saves the oil being poured down the drains or being burried in land fill.Originally posted by HayleyB View PostApparently our Tdi (Naomi) could run on cooking oil mix but my Denzel (latest Defender) can't Anyway I think Biofuel will be a bad way to go as its production is less green than the government makes out, and will mean food shortages......
