Title: SP95E10
Post by: cleggy on 22 July 2009, 16:46:19

Listening to 'YOU AND YOURS' on Radio 4 this lunchtime, and one of the topics concerned travellers to France, and unleaded petrol with 10% ethanol added ( and I though it was for drinking!) The GREEN emmissions decree from Brussels or something!
To listen use the ' Listen Again' for the program, and it's 22.24 mins in.
Comments would be of interest! Personally I think they can shove it where the sun don't shine, along with battery cars, and wind turbines

According to the expert on the program cars up to 9 years old should be OKeh over that then probably not, but check with manufacturer.
The problem is that it will be introduced here sometime, France is just ahead of the game.

There is certainly some concern, especially over proposed higher ratio "mixes"
