As above really bosch converting my car very soon and want to be buying some veg, BUT were do i get it from cheap i dont have a access to a cash and carry and wont be able to sign up to one as i dont have a business, so were else can i get it from? looked online at tesco but it doesn't seem that cheap to me and really would like it in 20l drums save tipping 1 liter bottles in to the car.
Or dose any one on here have a booker card that they can get a duplicate car for me?
Or were else can i get it from?
Or how can i get in to booker as i hurd they ask for accounts and vat numbers so its not a case of make a fake business up
Oh or sunflower oil? or ra*e seed (but dont no if can use that??? )
Thanks in advance for any info

It's been on that offer for a long time. Even my local Tesco err...Local has them in stock.
EDIT: I think the 5 litre ones are normally kept with in the speciality/ethnic food aisle, guess it depends who lives near you.

Poundland sell 1l bottles :-)
Tesco is usually about the same price
If you can get into bookers or macro they're usually your best best

240 litres is nothing, only need the back seats unlatched. I used to bring up to 400 litres 100 miles every week, its still within the payload weight of the car

Shame you're not closer to London, Scott and I both have Costco cards. That'd probably be your best bet- what job do you do? Is there anyone who can sign up for you? You can get a spousal card for free, or an extra card for £12 quid (where the criteria doesn't apply).

Well im a Chinese take away diver but its so hard trying to talk to them you mind asking them if they can get me some veg oil so thats out of the question at the min, my dad has a bookers card but were not exactly on talking terms at the min, found out my nephew's grandmar has a bookers card so hopefuly she will get me a spousal card if not im back to were i started agin. Unless theres some other way of getting in to the cash and carrys dont mind paying a few quid for the card if needs be.

In fairness it probably isnt too good for the bearings, and leaves the car kinda low at the back, sufficiently low to get pulled over lol, but all it will be doing is accelerating a probably thats probably going to occur already!
You say your a chinese take away driver, can you not got used oil from them, or even get them to buy you some from their wholesalers?

They sell there oil to a company already, as said they hardly understand me as it is so asking them to get me some oil will take some doing lol i have noticed they use rapeseed oil for there cooking tho, is it ok to use that on the bosch?

Seems like you have sorted jjs that's where I always get it from, put 3 holes the opposite side of the lid you pour it out of, comes out much faster I can empty a drum in the car in under 30 seconds

Dude... You work in a takeaway. Speak to them give them some money and they'll order you a few 20litre drums.
I know takeaway where I was pay £17 for 20 litres.
So ask them, that way it's delivered to you as well  .

I could do with a Chinese translator to talk to them really, i will try some time but i would rather sort it my self than get them involved. But i will talk to them some time just when i can be arsed to explain my self 5 times for them to say they dont understand lol
