Be interesting to see what happens in 2035 when UK government ban all new petrol and diesel cars. Ok there will be lots of existing petrol and cars kept going until spares dry up, we could end up like Cuba. But I dont see the government sitting back and let this happen, they will continue to increase road tax on petrol and diesel cars, and by then most towns & city's will have a ULEZ system in place. So it will not be affordable to run a petrol or diesel car. Small Chinese built electric cars will sell and be used for short journeys, longer journeys will have to be made by train or bus. Be interesting to see what happens to motorcycles, as the government have not issued a date yet for new petrol powered bikes to be banned, but with little market for petrol or diesel sales filling stations will close (or change to electric charging) so it will be difficult to find petrol to run your bike. No doubt the price of petrol & diesel at the remaining petrol stations will rise dramatically and government will no doubt impose a far higher tax rate. The UK government has shot itself in the foot with this one.
