I am planning to get a 200 litre water but on my drive for veg oil & petrol blend.

Can anyone suggest a pump I can use to get it in my car? Car or mains powered. I don't want a noisy petrol one incase it upsets next door.

I use an a electric 12v water pump from a caravan.

How long does it take?

Would have thought a little 12v thing would just burn out not have the torque for the thicker fluid.

dos take a bit of time to fill from empty but.. park near a burger van and have a cuppa while it fills.

I use a mains powered pump at home

Thats not a bad price. I take it the mains pump is better? I had a pump at my old house like the one I put in the link and it drained water very vast. don't know how it would come with the veg though.

None of the above pumps 2 bl00dy dear.
You want 12v submersible pump
I payed £26/27 of e bay last year.
works very well with oil.
Fits the 25 lt containers but not the 20 lt ones.
