Militery terminology I believe. D.E.R.V "Diesel Engined Road Vehicle" Fuel for use in, on tanks and storage cans. As I understood it. Doesn't have to make sense to mere mortals, just to quartermasters and their lists and mandates.
Except that a tank, in the context of an AFV, isn't a road vehicle.
Tank as in storage vessel like a can but the size of a student bedsit.
So do mine now I spent a massive =A315 getting another set.
Sure I'll save the difference in no time, given it did 45mpg on a run to London and back yesterday. ;-)

This may come as a shock to you, but cars don't drink.
*originally*.
Diesel was originally a surname.
So that's "Fuel for an engine which operates on the general principle invented by Diesel". That'll look snappy on the sign.
Language changes. "Bollocks" originally referred only to testicles.
I think that was his point: "how can a car drink DERV" "how can a car drink Diesel Engined Road Vehicle"
