was speaking to the next door neighbour today, his brother in law gets hold of diesel and its £1 a litre, he brings it down in 25 litre drums.the neighbours been using in for a while in a old transit.
the guy who brings it down says its cherry with the dye removed, had a look and it looks a greeny yellow?
what do you guys make off it and should i get some as i am reluctant to put technically red diesel in me disco?
thanks

Up to you but if you get caught you WILL have your vehicle impounded

its prob green diesel, or have they mixed it with heating oil?

Greeny yellow... I reckon it is City Desiel (Mix of normal and bio) and probably nicked from a bus or lorry company....

why bother , veg oil is same price and legal

Greeny yellow--- its household heating oil, hasnt got the addatives of engine diezel, and you will still be done for tax evasion. The colour has nothing to do with it these days, they put a probe up your exhaust and read it.

thanks guys, will skip it me thinks,

Nobody's going to shove a probe up my exhaust pipe

Seriously though, dont touch this crap. Easy enough to remove dye from red diesel but is it worth having your vehicle impounded, a heavy fine, a criminal record and encouraging crime?

Of course not
