Manufacture's a huge part of it. Depends on your annual mileage as to how long you'd take to eclipse that with efficiency savings, but either way, probably ages. That might be even harder than you think as your car's probably lighter than its contemporary equivalent. If your current car is petrol and you'd be buying a diesel then fuck that, particulates are a tangible health risk now, unlike CO2 which may or may not help kill a polar bear one day.So here's a question. I get a lot of stick from some fucking hippy at work who says I'm damaging the planet more with my 25 year old, immaculately-maintained car than if I bought a new, more 'environmentally friendly' one every 5 years. I say he's talking bollocks, because of the impact of manufacture and disposal - is he?
