Hi Mike, yeah it is good news. I only have caught the quantity as I was trying to get back off the floor and onto my chair again after that... I think I'll keep calling them once a month to check up on this.

Veg Oil. HM Customs tell me that they will make it tax free.

I spoke to a nice lady at HM Customs a few days ago. She informed me that the recent budget was going to allow private users of veg oil to use something like 2100 litres per annum duty free. However there hadn't been a date set to implement this. Anyone got any more "From the horses" mouth...

I'd like to see a pic of the pie oven sounds cool, or warm. Jake would you get a brace of pie ovens (right terminology for the installing of more than 2 pie warmers?) in your van and warm from them in a pie DJ stylie.

I remember seeing a German one that had been lowered plus an engine swap etc and i think the thinking behind it was that a lowered van that was also a syncro would have some jolly good grip. I'm not justifying that kind of crazy thinking though.

Kev, in terms of tax you have to register with HM Customs that you are using waste or new oil as a fuel for your vehicle. They tell me the process goes like this. They send you a form (I got one and it is an odd one, how many rooms does the building have for example...) you fill it out and they cons...

I have all the forms to fill out to register with HM customs and I know the engine in my van runs well on veg oil and diesel blend. Was even ok cold starting with 40% diesel during the cornwall white out the other week. I am meeting a guy locally who makes biodiesel on a very small scale next week h...

I have seen a video of a Paris Daka support T5 4motion and it had been raised etc etc etc and looked ok. Wish I could remember where I found it. Thomas will we be picking up pieces of plastic long after the T25's have gone to their retirement home did you mean?
