LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2018

Woo, sometimes just changing engine oil, fuel/air/oil filters will help on the emmions

 

On the subject of MOT's - the test changed in May last year - it's tougher to pass - particula(te)rly for diesel cars. I read somewhere that many more older diesel cars have been scrapped because of the test - so people buy new petrol cars (and pay tax to do so) and old smokey diesels are taken of the road (and help with climate change) - doubly convenient for the Government - but it may be me being cynical .

Have you also noticed that the road tax incentives for low emissions vehicles are being withdrawn/reduced?

Money, money, money.

 

I think it was bound to change, it couldn't carry on, most cars have lower emissions now and with the higher emission ones being forced off the road, it had to happen.
Personally if you use the road, you should pay road tax, IMO, even if you ride a bike and cause total chaos.

I didn't realise anyone actually read that stuff.

 

I look forward to reading it Something to do over Christmas.

 

I got that a couple of days ago Shiney. With the exception of Gmail I don't use Google.

 

Don't bother reading through all their stuff, just Google what the differences are.

My local dog-walking area has had the Council's tree surgeons out. They've done a good job on the trees but the tractor has made a hell of a mess. Driven over all the bushes that contained a lot of birds and wildlife. The field itself looks like a Sherman tank has gone over it.
