Pretty soon the biggest thing you'll be able to find over there will be the Smart Car. And this, from the people who gave us the Aston Martin and Jaguar. Sad -
It is indeed sad. Along with people's inability to afford 4x4's and large cars will come job losses from auto manufacturers as well as an increase in death and injury due to road accidents, which will place a greater strain on the already strained healthcare system.
While poking around on google under "Vintage cars" I came across countless photo of vintage cars -- all makes and models -- with these ribbons on them.

Not so, you just have to drive a vehicle with a diesel engine. Pretty much everything in the UK is available as a diesel and they put out far less CO2 than petrol/gasoline engines. Even the biggest Jaguar, the XJ6 comes with a superb twin-turbo diesel which drops it below the top band.
But don't get me wrong - I totally disagree with this green tax nonsense and we will soon get the chance to kick Labour out for good!
