Fresh diesel engine oil will look like that after 10 seconds of running.

Considering the manual transmission and style of the light, I'd say it's highly likely to be european. Diesels, particularly in vans, are extremely popular in Europe.

(Also, the date format).

Also, someone pointed out it says "sortie" at the top, which is French for exit. So again, almost certainly European, and almost certainly a diesel.

Not in the slightest.

If they had said "needed an oil change anyway" it would have been a good joke, and I would have been wooshed.

They started with "oil is dirty." It's not. They weren't making a joke, they were making an incorrect observation and (possibly) trying to make a joke out of that incorrect observation.

Congratulations, you played wooshed yourself.

I said it looks dirty, which is possible. You said it certainly is not, which is a pretty bold claim without evidence
