The interests of car buyers are often a political football, but it has rarely been felt so acutely as now. One week it\u2019s confusion over when the ban on new petrol and diesel sales kicks in; next the Prime Minister is said to be lining up a load of sweeteners, designed to attract motorists\u2019 votes. And all the while, the cost of living continues to rise, with interest rates running at their highest for 15 years. Challenging, confusing times.<\/p>\n
