Not taking a stance, but it does limit the usefulness of a diesel engined car over here.
Also our electric cars don't pay road tax while diesels are punished extra.
I have no idea how clean a diesel burning veggie oil is compared to one burning mineral oil. I would think it is (less/no benzene ringed molecules in veggie oil) just can't guess by how much.

again another great point! road tax on my Octavia is £130 a year so not too onerous.
re the banning from cities-again the fuel emissions eill alter due to different fuels, but you could always drive to the edge of the city and continue your journey on a folding bike
I'd like to keep the discussion focused on thebfinancial aspects if possible-especially as the e-Golf benefits from a £5000 government grant..
it'd be £32,000 otherwise!
