As the article says - a bit unfair to apply it as a sweeping limit. How would Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini etc let alone LR be able to comply?

Sounds a bit strange, but the EU could do anything Confused

I don't remember voting for anyone who proposed this legislation for the UK. Democracy at work?

Unfortunately the unelected gravytrain riding scum at the EU have realised that legislating against the populace will lead to mass civil disobedience and disrespect for the law (or Gallic Pragmatism as it's called in certain quarters). As a result they legislate against governments and bodies corporate and shag the population up the dark one by the back door (pun very much intended).

That makes me really quite ANGRY!

This could be very challenging for LR to meet unless they are absorbed into some big brand Rolling Eyes

By 2012 carbon emissions will be sooo last season daahling!

The eco warrior greenpeace media machine will have moved on by then.

Who knows what they will be on about in 2012?

Wearing loud clothes in built up areas?

Who had heard of the term 'carbon footprint' 2 years ago?
