Just get a later model diesel car. VW, Mercedes, and some Jeep products are all I know of in the US. Europe has several good small diesels that get wonderful mileage. I am hoping more will be offered here now that people are beginning to get more interested in them.

Any regular diesel car can use bio diesel. VW and Mercedes sell diesel cars, see the 1st source. Most diesels in the U.S. are trucks, see the 2nd source.
You can buy bio diesel at some locations, but it is still hard to find. Willie Nelson (the singer) has a chain of stations that sell bio diesel in 7 states. See the 3rd source for locations.

Diesel is a little greater costly than petrol in the united kingdom. Diesel automobiles are slightly greater costly petrol automobiles. diesel automobiles have not have been given any ht leads , no spark plugs , no coil , or digital timing. Diesel automobiles are slightly greater slugish at pulling away , reving up and so on , yet as quickly as going deisels out carry out petrol at say accelerating from 50 mph to 80 mph. Diesel engines will do greater mileage in a life-time that petrol. highway tax and emmisions could be diverse consistent with make of automobile cc engine and so on. in many circumstances choose for diesel in case you rigidity greater on motorways , long distance , petrol if greater around city.

At the moment, Bio-diesel is something that YOU would need to produce.
Since it is something that you can produce on your own, there is little motivation for a business to do it for you. You will always be able to get it cheaper locally than from some large producer. Granted, no one has produced a car yet into which you can dump the cooking oil, and the car converts the cooking oil into a fuel.
It's a messy procedure if you haven't seen Mike Rowe of Dirty Jobs fame doing it in one of his shows on TV.
