Well as I'm out of work I cannot afford to spend any cash.

My car is 4.5 years old so doesn't need a pump and at the moment a full tank lasts a month.

But if I get the 6 month contract I'm after I have worked out that the fuel cost based on £1.23 per litre I will spend £1,500 in six months on diesel.

What is SVO, WVO?

I guess these are Vegetable Oil based diesels, if so my car cannot take them without damaging the engine (so I have been told) and I won't even consider it, unless the Ford dealer says so.

agreed ,i use a tank every 5 days (80 litres) on average and coupled with lower wages it will be a big increase in my fuel bill ,the gov should not increase the duty on fuel ,it will cause a lot more hardship than just replacing the fuel pump and using alternatives can cure ,that is far too simplistic a view
