FUCK OFF BBC - Diesel moan

So even running on veg oil (which is what I said) they are bad?? How does the veg oil become a carcinogen?

My understanding is all oil is carcinogenic, even chips cooked in it are. I could be rong though.

Too small, if a fully grown adult sits in the drivers seat there is less than 3 inches between it and the backseat. They're about as space efficient as an XJ-S.

I rented one for a week then realised the £100 Rover 600 was better and a lot less embarrassing to park outside clients houses.

You'll be pleased to hear I bought a descendent of an Autoshite Icon , a modern interpretation of a w124 300D.

Bit like tabacco being a natural product but when burnt becomes a carcinogen.

 

 

o.k, that makes sense I guess.....I just thought the bad stuff was coming FROM the diesel oil and veg was 'clean' 

 

So, will they ban all smoking from the cities as well then?? 

 

And aircraft flying over?  (have a look at 'flight radar' bloody frightening how many planes are in the sky) 

 

Shame they didn't realise it was so bad 60 odd years ago before they let cabs and buses run around London on it all day every day eh.

The oil itself isn't carcinogenic when ingested.

I think the only advantage of veg (other than price at the moment) is that it's renewable.

i didn't know there is a bird called "bug"?

I was thinking Seagull. Three wheeled, lightweight car called a seagull. I'm off to Dragon's Den.

Just to bugger it up try this...... NOx (oxides of Nitrogen) today's main nasty from internal combustion is not a product of the fuel burnt - the fuel only produces water, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.

It's all dwarfed by the emissions created factory-farming, particularly beef with millions of cowfarts threatening to kill us all.
