  4. taken on board what your all saying and yes thats a good idea put them on in adverts, and reg number in the description, you could say that if you run a mixed selection pitch and had them on, then punters walking round or even driving past will look at the price rather than the reg number [ because its not showing] , if the customer bases his buying on = make,year, colour, price. then by having no plate showing he/she is seeing = make colour price. does that draw the customer further in ? is there opportunity for inflated prices for people who cant value cars ? certainly round here a few do that, or maybe because quite a few dealers are close together its to actually bring them in and ask/look in window at description card ?

  10. Environment secretary Michael Gove is expected to reveal details of a targeted diesel scrappage scheme before July 31. The Government has until Monday next week to publish a final revised UK Air Quality Plan for tackling nitrogen dioxide and it is expected the scrappage scheme plans will be part of measures set out in the plan. According to The Times, the original plan of £500 million to fund a diesel scrappage scheme and £250m to help local councils launch clean air schemes “has evolved significantly". The source from the Times also says Gove is expected to introduce new tests for diesel toxicity levels that go further than current EU standards. Gove has previously criticised the EU testing regime over how it enforces emissions standards. The Government has also refused to rule out further changes to VED in the Budget this autumn.
