Spoke to a well regarded sales manager the other day and he's already instructed his team to mark down diesel trade ins by further 15% minimum on rock bottom book value. Petrol enquiries are on the up apparently.

Is this the tip of the iceberg?

Anyone else heard similar?

Things always start off like this, but it seems to gathering pace, diesel is basically a dead man walking.

The fact it's killing people and shown to be way worse for our health means the party really is over.

Soon enough they will become cheaper, retail stock won't come down quite until new stand in pricing moves through the system.

Give it a year and this forum will be awash with these stories.

Granted it's the very thinnest end of the wedge. But I'm going to liken the shift from diesel as going from smoking (diesel) to vaping (petrol/electric).

Or perhaps just a different take on things or angle as to how you interpret things going on around you. You don't always need to follow the herd you know. Which is what makes the world interesting.
