The Government claims 95 percent of vehicles are compatible with the new unleaded fuel and that the switch could cut transport carbon dioxide emissions by 750,000 tonnes a year.
However, RAC foundation estimates more than 650,000 cars aren’t able to run on E10, including classic cars and many models made in the early 2000s.
