Yeah but its bio-diesel - made from the vegetable oil that your chippy/chinese normally throws out, supposedly its harder on the injectors and pumps than normal diesel but I'm quite happy with it , plus the van is leased so if it does break down I don't have to pay a  penny :)

I wouldn't recommend it for a private car without seriously checking that it doesn't screw your car warranty .....

NB All french cars already run on a 5% bio diesel blend - French govt introduced it a few years ago, there's plenty of info available on the web about it.
