I've seen some of the proposd rules about diesels being rather unfair based upon age rather than emissions. So sure I saw somewhere about diesels being more than 2 years old. Seem rather unfair given there will be EU6 diesels out there over 2 years old. My 2012 F10 530d had the option to be EU6 (I didn't go for it as it was £995) but just shows that there could be 5 year old cars out there that are EU6 compliant but potentilaly being unfairly targeted....
I'm not against eletric cars but for me the issue is charging. I have nowhere to charge the car in my block of flats. Many people live on terraced streets with cars parked on the road. Where are they going to charge? So it suits some people very well at present but its not for everybody yet.
I'll put money on the UK Autumn budget starting to target diesle cars and thne wtahc how popular the 530e will become.It might start to eat into the 520D popularity significantly.
