The Supreme Court's ruling has been complied with by all vehicle manufacturers by the NOX reducing technology called Adblue see here..

There are a lot more problems created by burning fossil fuels in industry than there ever was for cars. That is why the Diesel engine in its current form using Adblue is being used in more and more countries. The engines from 2015 onwards are now to EU6 levels. The following blog helps people understand what massive progress has been made and why the diesel engine will not be going away anytime soon..

Anyway, now back on subject.
I am pleased that you already knew all about it because due to the way your question was worded, I assumed that you didn't.

What existing diesel owners (including myself) should be concerned about is the impact that this will have by way of punitive taxation on vehicles not using Adblue. Do you know if Adblue can be retrofitted to existing diesel engines? I do know that SCRs are very costly!

Back on track, petrol looks like the way forward!
