With changes to road tax and stupid pricing where even cheap BMW's can cost north of £40K when optioned up I'll be sticking with my five year old diesel estate and it can just run and run

Perhaps in another five years fuels like hydrogen will have decent infrastructure available and the cars won't be carrying an innovation premium then perhaps I'll change my by then old BMW

Looking forward to the dealerships reopening so I can test drive a few suitables for my renewal which is due at the end of the year.

End of the year will be a great time to pick up a 1 year old car that's been repo'd.
