It'll never catch on. At this rate we'll all be buying cars that don't even manage 60mph. If the legislation doesn't get you the £5/litre will!

There is a relaxation on fuel duty for personal bio-diesel producers/users but the equipment you need still attracts VAT.

VW's 3 cylinder TDi (Polo) is impressive. I drove one in 2005 and never even realised it was a 3 cyl unit!
