[I Feel Old]

Of course govt has policy that influences the motor industry, particularly relating to pollution and will continue to do so. However, you are also digressing from your original post re how the industry is progressing/regressing.

ULEZ; what's that got to do with how cars are acquired, whether users can fit a new radio, or being forced to use main dealers? Although modern ICEs comply, there's no need even for electric cars to comply.

That's a different topic.

Your post was about how the motor industry is developing re leasing, whether users will be forced to use main dealers, the role technology is playing…
I don't see any reference to political influences whether on environmental issues, or otherwise.

I responded to your post outlining how I foresee the future of transport and throwing in some of the areas I think there will be huge impact. Paul, for some reason, appears to believe I was making some argument for it to be so and that it was a good thing, and then went off on a tangent.
