The thread reminds me of pgfpro, who was running an Eagle Talon on paint thinner. Cool stuff.
I think my car is capable of burning ethanol but I guess there's really no cost/efficiency savings to that.

Have you tried blending? Most gas cars can handle 20-40% E85 and usually there is no ill effect in fuel consumption until about 35% E85 blend

Like the Toyota Hilux that Top Gear couldn't wreck, these
Merc's are indestructible too. I remember Fifth Gear tried it with a 250D. Only downside is that they rust easily.

I like them too, that is why i have two
perfect when driving long distances, quiet and comfortable, my former cars (volvo 240) are also legendary but a lot louder, a bit too loud for comfort when driving long distances like I do now
Like with all old cars rust is the biggest enemy
Thank you guys
