I've looked at this at length over the last few weeks, especially as a guy in Brum has had his Jeep, which is exactly the same as mine, converted to run on SVO by dieselveg in Wolverhampton.
However, the sums didn't add up, so I gave up on the idea. The tax loophole which classed SVO as biodiesel has now been closed by the revenue, which means 47.1p tax on every litre, and not 27.1p. You could just not bother about the tax, but there's a risk that others might shop you because a) they see you pouring crisp 'n' dry into the tank or b) your exhaust smells like a chip shop. In either case, they're not gonna be happy that you pay less for fuel than them.

No the tax loophole (if you can call it that) is still there. see this thread here...

...though you gonna have to jump through plenty of hoops to get the lower rate. And COSTO are currenlty selling 20ltrs for £8.95 I believe :)
