What an inspiring video! Rudolph Diesel had an amazing vision with his peanut oil powered apparatus and all these years later it's becoming the focal point for alternative power plants for cars. 50% of all car sales in Europe have diesel engines, it's high time we started catching up. Lots of power, MUCH more efficiency than petrol powered engines and the ability to go from regular diesel to bio-diesel with little or no modifications makes them greatly versatile.

I'd KILL for a VW Polo with ANY of the five TDI engine choices they offer in Eurpoe that easily net 70mpg+ as would a lot of other people on this forum I suspect.....come on VW, get those EcoModders demographics in mind!
