It appears that oil tankers might not bring enough oil to meets the needs of the UK.
I have already received my fuel ration coupons, so thought driving would continue.





However, I now notice that 1100cc is the engine size limit.
Will Aston Martin perhaps suggest replacing our V8s and V12s with a small capacity Honda vibrator engine?
What can we do?

Convert to bioethanol, or get a syphon?

Assuming you have a V12 6.0, each cylinder is 500cc (unless it's the Honda version where they can be random sizes).

So, you declare two cylinders, totalling 1.0 litre, and say the other 10 cylinders are spares.

My v8 identifies as a v12…I’m sure that could change with a little surgery….😅
