[QUOTE="Pennine Ploughing, post: 7956311, member: 999"] The way I see it is, red was allowed for the use to promote your business as a farmer / contractor, this is why it was allowed. However there seems to be more and more of private individuals doing Ploughing, or people that are not directly involved with agricultural, most were brought up on a farm, or worked on on after leaving school, but in later years left the industry to seek other employment, yet fancy a vintage tractor to relive their youth. And the only really working days there is for this group is Ploughing matches, So this would be private use, and private use should be on white, Not saying I agree with it, but that is nothing new, it's been like that for many years. Red diesel is one thing, but many of the Ploughing men complaining about the use of tractor fuel, will be running over their gross weight on their vehicle that they move the Ploughing outfit about on aswell [/QUOTE]
