Apologies: I always believed it to be illegal because you used to fail your Driving test if you did it. But there is a little bit of legislation if you happen to have an accident and it;s proven to be the cause. https://www.leaseloco.com/blog/the-potential-fines-and-vehicle-damage-of-coasting-in-neutral But there is no specific offence.

He was PM from 2019 until 2022 He was PM when the above statement was made is what i said, 18/11/2020

Boris was PM in November 2020? Shapps and Sharma made the statement about 2030 https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-takes-historic-step-towards-net-zero-with-end-of-sale-of-new-petrol-and-diesel-cars-by-2030

The CO2 is what is stated to be contributing to Climate change though. The NOx is regarding Breathable air quality We have just moved the goal posts in what the government think we can be charged for doing. Get a diesel they said to reduce CO2 so many people did. Diesels are dirty they need a DPF they said, so many went along with that one too, despite poorer fuel consumption as a result. So we lower the CO2, then lower the Particulate matter Now they say Nox They will think of something else when we are all electric

Me thinks you are talking at cross purposes. The BRS system is in a Hybrid car so the car is controlled by the 48v battery when the engine turns off. the car is not "coasting" in the traditional sense Coasting (turning the engine off and engaging neutral) in a standard ICE car is illegal

This is an electric car puzzle. The e-4orce 4x4 xtrail: Nissan claims you should see fuel economy of around 44mpg with CO2 levels from 143g/km. The petrol engine exists purely as a generator and is not connected to the wheels in any way. It converts petrol into electricity, which is sent either to a small battery or directly to the electric motor, depending on how urgently it’s needed. My 2.0 litre diesel has CO2 level of 136g/km and can return 60mpg

I have read an article about air quality somewhere, but cannot find it now. The article claimed that as more town traffic has gone electric the air quality has got worse, because the newer combustion engines where actually cleaning the air of fumes being put out by HGVs and Buses in front of them in queues. So as the cars combustion engines numbers reduced there where less to clean it up. i.e the air going in the engine was cleaner when it came out of the exhaust of a euro 6 car than when it went in if behind the hgv Think it was about Glasgow's air quality.

I am more concerned about committing to a euro 6 diesel now then finding out they move the goalposts on diesels in ulez zones when euro 7 comes into effect in July 2025? https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/tips-advice/106870/what-are-euro-7-emissions-standards The EU ban on the sale of ICE (new cars only) is 2035 it was only Boris (i think) who said we would do it by 2030

A car is built in around 24 to 36 hours from what i can find something to watch whilst you wait https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGkenbIRTI0

With lead times being that long, i would expect the car will actually be slightly different in spec than what was ordered when it arrives.

Interesting, but how would "mapping" effect the gearbox warranty? 184ft/lbs = 250nm approx The gearbox is not designed for torque above 250nm from what i understand.

If it has the DQ200 gearbox are the revs being limited to prevent the engine output going beyond 250nm?

Buying any vehicle with a DSG automatic gearbox you need to check that the gearbox has had it's oil and filter changed at the relevant mileages /timescales.
