You are allowed 2500 litres per year before you have to register with HMRC but if you go over you pay tax on ALL oil used. The allowance is per person so if you and partner drive vehicle that's 5000 litres !!!! Don't think I'll go over 96litres a week!!! Check out vegtableoildiesel.co.uk

I run my 300 Tdi on diesel veg oil and 5% petrol. Keep record of veg used incase I get dipped by excise. Morrisons have just had deal on veg £4 for 5l so been buying loads. Disco runs fine on veg mix, takes few more seconds to start, had no problems and will change filters more often. Getting...

Wonder if 'Des the Pirate' is from Hull as well ???

Used to be a 'Jolly Rodger' at a garage I use to sell tools to,when I was with MAC Tools, he always had shiny tools and was a 'very nice man' and loved all the young apprentices under him !!

Disco 1 ?????

Hi, got 265/75/16 Maletestra Kobras on my D1 ! Never had any problems with them, even on p*** wet roundabouts no bum twitching moments, been great off road too, some really muddy sites & still no probs. Mike

Hi Jordan, All sorted , but thanks for offer. Cheers Mike

Just got fully Comp insurance with AF Direct. 96 300Tdi slightly modified. Excellent price and service. Only query they had was declared mileage ?? I'd forgotten to put point in between tenths of miles !! They thought mileage was rather high at over a million miles lol. Don't use Disco all time...

As above, sticking caliper, hot wheel , no brakes, stink, replaced pipes callipers ,pads and fluid. Not worth messing about brakes too important. Disco was new to me so just speeded up what I always try and do when not sure what's been maintained properly.

Do a search !! Plenty of threads on here re imobiliser bypass, that's what I did.

Same here put Lucas stop leak in couple of yrs ago !! No problem since, just dried up and as quoted passed MOT's since adding. Worth a try, know it'll need doing properly eventually but "if it ain't broke".

Always take mine to authority test stations , always will do , due to rip off merchants around Leeds.

+1 used hot air gun ! Came up a treat. Just keep moving gun.

Mmm !!! Wonder what Lampro uses the 'Patients' for ? Perhaps not got any axle stands !! Wonder if Baldrick had been messing about whilst formulating a "cunning" plan lol

Cheers Biggeeeee Been to PlumbCenter ! 8mm spot on couple oh quid , sorted.

Know what you mean ! Had a play in a Jeep GC ! Very capable, very comfy, and won't end up a pile of dust at the end of a good pay n play day. Plus you can pick them up pretty cheaply now. Got to say though ! I bought my '96 300Tdi for £1000 !! Was really lucky though, it's solid as a rock ! Flew...
