As far as I'm aware, you can only use a biopetrol with a max 10% bioethanol in an un-modified engine. This fuel is called E10 or gasohol.

Maxol seem to be doing a lower percentage, E5. Here's a list of their stations:

Edit: sorry just read you have a diesel engine. I'm not sure what the case is for them..

Yes there is a biodiesel for diesel engines. Not sure where you're gonna find it in Ireland though.
