Surely, a reduction in supply is only going to increase the value of any
diesel that you own. It's not as if garages are going to stop selling
the fuel, given the number of white vans around.

The reduction in supply is due to reduction in demand - no-one in their
right mind will buy one so prices will go through the floor.

No oner will buy new ones, but old ones hold value

If it were not for the bad press that diesels have got recently and the fear
that some cities will ban them or make you pay extra, I'd definitely buy
another diesel. I much much prefer driving a diesel and I like the lower
fuel consumption and hence greater range on a tank of fuel.

My car is coming up to 10 years old and is starting to cost fir repairs to
the anti pollution system. I will be gutted when eventually have to get rid
if it and replace it with a petrol which is gutless and has a noisy high
revving engine (unless I get a powerful engine).

I wish electrics had advanced where they had the same 700 mile range and 5
minute refuel time as ICE cars. I mainly make fairly short journey nowadays
but no way would I get a car that didnt have the ability to make a longer
journey if i needed to eg if our main car was ever off the road or bith my
wife and i needed to make" long" (greater than 100 mile) journeys at the
same time.
