Not the sort of thing I keep in my head, I had to look it up! I knew it was petrol, that is the sort of thing I keep in my head.

Over 70% diesels T-cars are not that common in continental Europe - but I was under impression that there's a bigger share of petrols in UK..

But the poll doesn't reveal where the poll participants are from. It's not possible to conclude what % are petrol in the UK from this data.

Not at all. It's a simple poll. Just to check how many engines of a certain type there are. It is only possible to conclude what % are petrol or diesel and which engine in specific among the forum members who voted 🗳 of course

You could probably look at “how many left” for uk registered numbers if you were so inclined although I’d be a lot of work.

I would guess that a forum would be disproportionately skewed to the higher spec/trim/engine than normal but maybe not looking at the poll as its kind of what I’d expect.

Interestingly I thought there’d be more T8s as that includes the PE cars and also I was told by multiple dealers last year pre-covid that they’re selling strongly due to company car demand for PHEVs.

But being the majority of the members of this forum from UK we can have at least an idea even if it's not an accurate margin.
