Can i? can't I?

There aren’t many commercials below 3.5t which didn’t have a petrol option (might have only been an export version, granted).

If it’s over 3.5t, then unless it’s American, I doubt there was a petrol option if it was made after the 1960’s.

Basically guy's, i have the 99 plate mazda b2500 non turbo diesel model (1,300kg's) i was stung £250 because i drove part way into Ilford! a Low emission zone, so my thoughts were... if they made a model with petrol, by dropping one in, and changing the logbook details etc... would there be a problem? Mine is a B2500, and they made other b series trucks, so can i go ahead with the petrol idea because some of the B models had petrol, or should i look harder to see if they made a petrol one in the same model/series as mine? Thanks in advance

oh dear................... well that's that i suppose, cheers guys.

They never made petrol versions of that shape, not for uk market anyways. You can get the original square body b2000/b2200 in petrol but they’re fairly rare and expensive these days.

Now there's an idea! The modern world eh? Oh well, food for thought, even though just a mere morsel....Cheers guy's.

Well maybe i am just unlucky, and unliked? I was stung a while ago, but they quoshed it due to some curse word ignoring my messages etc... but this time around, even though it is listed as a disabled persons second vehicle, i had no chance, they do not let you pay in installments either...£250 there and then, 14 days to pay or suffer a bigger fine, dirty filthy C***S! as if my £250 has saved the lungs of 200 children, 4 dogs, 3 o.a.ps, a knackered judge and 2 councillors??
I have now registered, and i am waiting patiently to see how much it will cost me to go there again...if the need arises?
there is nothing i would like more, than dropping a petrol lump into it, and being able to drive it there whenever, even on purpose! but hey! I think it's all over......?

drop in an E-Rod

must admit, they reply pretty quickly now, this was my reply yesterday when i asked if i would be allowed a petrol engine in place of a diesel.
