The message ews.net
from "Doctor Drivel" contains these words:

I get 45mpg out of my elderly Audi and that's without the environmental
expense of producing a new car.

And probably pollutes like hell ruining lungs by the million..

Well, it's cat equipped and
passes its particulate test each year by a
considerable margin.


Which means its pollutes a little than without.

Of course it pollutes, all forms of transport, except possibly walking
barefoot pollute. It's questionable whether the pollution caused by
making a new car for me would be greater than the pollution caused by me
running a well maintained old car.

A new car does nor pollute so much at point of use.
