Probably home brew. Am I right in thinking you can make 2500 litres of biodiesel before being taxed now. If you do 25mpg thats about 13,000 miles a year at about 10p per litre if you can find a chippie to give you their used oil, or 40p per litre if you buy it straight.
I only do about 5-6K per year so it's probably not worth investing in a kit as there are a couple of outlets in Sheffield now, but they start at about £1k for a basic one.

If it's just to get to work get a larger moped like a 125cc - £15 road tax and 70mpg. Less depreciation on the Disco, more fun to be had with it.

You say something has to give.
At the moment we have one of the highest tax burdens our country has ever seen. And yet our health, education armed and social services are at an all time low.
Why?
I could point the blame at all sorts of things like a non contributing population rise. But i wont in case i offend.
The government bang on about more efficatious use of resources but in that case where is all the tax revenue going if it is all so efficient?
