Remember the 330d they raced at a 24 hour Le Mans style thing. Yeah, that was what they used. It was seeds for diesel, not petrol. Apparently.

They said in the episode when they used the fuel, it was going to be used for a race, then surprise surprise it was May that cocked up and it was indeed seeds for diesel, so they had to buy a diesel car
