Diesel Fumes are dangerous.....

Post by X5Sport » Wed Jun 13, 2012 12:38 pm

Well here's something I don't suppose any of us here don't already know.....diesel is a Hydrocarbon and Hydrocarbons aren't good foor your health, but this report has now come out....

BBC News article.  Call me cynical, but this will give HM Government yet another reason to add tax to diesel drivers, and the petrolheads (including that monkey Clarkson) will have a field day!!

No doubt the V8 mob on here will take pot shots too....... :)

Of course petrol is the elixir of life :-X
Still safer to breath fumes from an X than to smoke.
So if you own a derv and smoke, you're buggered :'(

That's more government funded research as it is the most important question at present.

Well, that and of course Mr Cameron asking 'where's Nancy?'....  :drunk:
