My father in law goes to trade shows of some sort and has been stopped twice outside the gates for his van to be tested. He reckons it's because a lot of gypsies attend.

Any suggestions.

(before any do-gooders inform me its illegal and I should point out Gypsies are allowed to get away with no tax, mot, insurance, never pays speeding tickets and parking fines not to mention any council tax and just mess up the country with piles of hardcore and the police do nothing nothing NOTHING. It makes me sick that some people are allowed to run amock and the average joe gets clobbered then why should the rest of us care)

Sorry about that it got me started.

A 9 year old post got you started? Great first post...........:sleep::sleep::sleep:

Agree S70 - what a hypocritical first post. "Ooh those nasty gippos do it so that means I can too."

DOH!

Bloody hell how old is this thread LOL! Having scoobynet tied into google is really starting to be become a pain in the arse.

Anyway; once you go red, you can't go back (well, not quickly at least). It stains the fuel filters pink and leave residual fuel will make white diesel show up pink. HMRC won't give a stuff; they'll just assume you've watered it down.

What's the price of red to farmers etc these days then? My old man uses red (legitimately) in his boat but the marinas are mostly charging over £1/L now.
