  • Veg oil rip off

    Recently i intended on using veg oil as fuel for the first time but unfortunately it doesnt seem worth it at all.
    All the big supermarkets including Aldi & Lidl are selling veg oil for 1.35 euro (£1.21)!!!
    Seeing as the price of diesel is around 1.15 euro theres no point.

    Cant get my hands on wholesale stuff either because you have to be registered as a business.

    Thats the end of that then.

    Dood i thought that until i found a few Asian wholesalers (well shops realy) and they sell 20Lts for £15 and sometimes less.

    I found that Leicester has a large Asian population and then found some shops and then its grown from there.

    Dont give up, you know you want that Chip shop smell when you pull up its great!!!
    Always room for more power!!!!

                I get to go where I want, no laws here.

                I have a national park behind my house and the head ranger is a big 4x4 nut, he even suggests trails for us.

                          Yeah im going to look around for some Chinese/Indian stores down here tomorrow, see if i can get some big containers of cooking oil for a decent price. Something like 80 cent a litre maybe?

                            A couple of years back i went to the trouble of fitting a second tank for veg use, then they caught on and the price went right up, it aint worth the hassle now, indian bloke promised me a regular supply of used but as usual it came to f##kall, chinese and indian wholesalers round here sell to anyone that wants to buy but its on a par with the pumps so again not worth the trouble of lugging the cans about, saw some in aldi's at 95p a lt, cheapest i seen for a while
