Can you imagine what a warehouse full of NOS quality small and medium sized ICE cars will be worth a couple of years after they have stopped selling them? My guess it could be a good investment.
What ever government is in power then will have to tread carefully, banning the use of old cars is going to loose them votes especially if we cant afford to buy and run new electric. My guess they will impose charges for using them in some areas like towns and some major roads at peak times. There is still a possibilaty that they will postpone the date.

I doubt they'll postpone the date as they are legally bound to reduce emissions by 78% by 2035, It was enshrined in law in June 2021

The EU have just brought forward their ICE ban from 2040 to 2035.
