Rather than tip it down the sink, and with fuel prices being so high, can I put our used oil in our car?
Its a Fiat 105JTD.

No chance.
The JTD is a commonrail engine, so you'll just f*ck up very expensive to replace bits of fuel system.
don't put it in the drains, it is not good stuff for a water sewage system, the local council tip have disposal facilities. Used oil needs lots of filtering and chemical change before it can be used in suitable vehicles, there are lots of sites that tell you how to make bio diesel and whether your car is suitable (probably not)
It will be suitable for fully converted biodiesel, but not for filtered cleaned waste veg oil.
Shame, I fancied eating more chips.
You can get it filtered but i dont think its really worth it small scale
