Yeah it's the same over here. Agricultural diesel is red. One of the boat yards over the river from the one i work for got caught using red diesel in the boats. It's even cheaper than marine. But yeah, i wont be able to run mine on marine for much longer coz a few of the boatyards have been caught running the vans [like i am LOL] on it, so we're pretty sure they're going to start dying it white so it's easier to tell apart. The only real differnce between marine diesel and city vehicle diesel is the viscosity, and it's slightly more translucent. Blooming tax!

I get new vans regularly - but i tend to stick with the same model. They're only old ones but they are mechanically sound so they get me from A to B without letting me down.

Hopefully i wont be doing that for much longer, because im looking for a place in Norfolk so i can sell up in essex and east london and get a nice nice place for myself on the river hopefully, and finally get my bigger boat.
