Falling CO2 levels
My 2015MY D4 has CO2 of 213 g/km but I see that the car now has 203g. Is that the new figure post bringing Euro6 emission controls in for the engine?2014MY Discovery

The latter. The 2.2 in the DS is due to be rediculously short lived!

What is the EU6 limit then?Volvo XC60 - does all that the D4 should have done
Discovery HSE MY16 (good apart from the heating), now sold
Audi TT Roadster (wow)
MGB Roadster (owned since 1992)
Discovery 3 TDV6 HSE MY08
Saab 9-5 Aero 2002 (gone but not forgotten)

NOx was limited to 180mg/km for Euro 5, which will become 80g/km for Euro 6, using "urea injection"; my dealer ensures me that it's synthetic urea - so no taking the then... interestingly, it was 780g/km for Euro 1 back in 1992.
Watch out for local and national goverment using Diesel engines cars (especially pre Euro 6 Diesel engines) as cash cows for "environmental reasons" soon.
