E10 fuel is coming

[Snorty]

I posted about this before... but apparently it's coming later this year.

At least the MP is trying, and actually considering the road users who don't drive brand new vehicles like all the MPs...

I'm guessing the 10% ethanol (shitter quality and less MPG) will be sold for what we're paying now, and there'll be 5% at a bigger expense on a separate pump.

Must be legit

If all "facts:

# Inefficient
# Higher or similar cost
# Only compatible with newer engines

Are known publicly. I find it hard to believe this will end quietly.

Crikey, the Germans didn't like it up 'em.

Still don't, it seems.

hell of a knock on affect
Supporting E10 actually increases famine! Who would honestly support this shit?

No thanks, Ethanol will not agree with my plastic fuel tank on the RSV.

Nothing will change, it's like there now being a bio diesel and normal diesel option.

Regardless of what people think of the oil companies, they aren't going to damage their bottom line by having everything containing that level of ethanol.

Use corn as petrol instead of as food... Surely such a nugget of stupidity could only have originated in the minds of uncaring selfish unelected bureaucrats from Brussels whose sole purpose in life to enrage the population.

[Rogerborg]

Eh, it's just another way to subsidise revolting French farmers (I know that's redundant). Total eco-scam, even the saner greens recognise the futility of using fossil based fertilisers to turn crops into fuel.

The sooner we grow a pair and tell Brussels to get fucked on these issues, the better. Everywhere else South or East of Belgium just ignores them, and we could too if we weren't ruled by supine suck-ups.
