    Best at the moment is Tesco - £5 for 6L (83.3p/L). Offer only applies until 24/05 though apparently. I think Asda have a similar offer on at the moment too.

    Normally I get it from a local cash & carry place in 20L drums but they've gone up in price to £16.99 as of last week (85p/L). I'm gonna check out a few other places before I next need to fill up to try & find the cheapest place.

    There is a guy from Bolton who does SVO at about 50p/L but you have to buy 200L/1000L at a time from him. I don't have his contact details but I'm sure someone will be along with them at some point...

      £1.27 per litre up here for derv I used to make my own bio diesel but I could not get right and had to eventually take my fuel tank out and clean it etc and the amount of fuel filters I was going through was obscene but I am back using good clean veg . The best I can get it for here is around £0.90 a litre, not good I know but there is still a bit of a saving on a tank full. I run around 60% oil...

        Costco.

        When the price of fuel goes up, the price of everything else, including SVO because of transport costs and WVO because of demand, goes up too.
        Do you know that, with a 50 character limit, it's

              Would it be you who I was following ... Red Bull traffic lights? Grey Surf with big "I run on veg!" (or something similar), with some oblique sticker above it referring to your father's bum!

              I was going to beep and wave but then being in my Ford Ranger 2wheeldrive pick-up I got all coy and ignored you lol

                Hahaha! No - wasn't me!

                There are a lot of Surfs in the area though - at least four I know of in my "village" (Silverdale).

                One of them has a forum sticker on as well but I haven't been able to work out if it's currently owned by a forum member or not yet.

                      I'm buying 20lt drums from Bookers for £15.

                      Free used oil has dried up, the suppliers now PAYS to take old oil away, so we're not getting it anymore from pub.

                      But at least new stuff is clean, so can go straight in.

                        mate of mine pays approx 90p a litre for bio from sundance in wales - its sold as heating fuel, so naturally he only uses it to run the heater in the truck.....
