I have heard the oil companies will not be delivering lead replacement petrol after next year in the south.

What is going to happen to drivers, like myself, who have old cars and cannot afford to buy a newer one?

I am retired and the car is my only means of getting out to the shops or for seeing friends. Other people need their cars for work.

We will not be able to part-exchange them because no one will want to buy them, even though some of these old cars are in better road condition than many newer ones.

Many will be dumped because no one will take them away. We will be the losers all round.

Why should it be only us in the south that have to suffer? Does no one with an old car from another part of the country visit down here?
