Surely that should bring the price down, or do they pay triple quadrupled?

New Polo Diesels have not been a thing for a good few number of years.

I would hazard a guess & say maybe less than 5% of the Polo's on SA roads use the devil's juice.

Probably that diesel is 500ppm. Diesel cars of today prefers 50ppm, as it is much cleaner, and won't clog the injectors, etc.

Article correction, not polo's, but a few lorries/trucks can be filled, as well as agricultural equipment, such as tractors and harvestors.

If you daily a 1995 diesel shitbox, yes, then you can run it with 500ppm diesel. Or cars with a mechanical diesel injection system.
