CO2 Offsetting

I just offset my CO2 emmissions from my supercharged RRS for £36. (7000 miles per year at 15mpg)
Since I bought the car second hand, there were no new emmissions in manufacturing.

It's not a perfect system but better than doing nothing.

Mine offset from new by LR - why don't they put a sticker in the car to say so and keep the greenies happy?? http://www.black-code.co.uk

The new LR's (Seen at the dealer last week) have a sticker on the boot (right hand side), i think below the model name / number. I put the phrase CO2 Offset on my number plate.

Climate care should issue a sticker too. They don't seem to at the moment. 2022 P440e AB

CO2 offset doesnt seem to do much to the environment. I think its just LR PR to give GP something to chew on for a while.
On another note I didnt want to start a new thread for this but I've just seen a new TDV8 RRS for sale and its got a set of stormers on it (no big there)
But the size and design of them seem different to the current stormers. The Prongs seem thinner and more pronounced.
Have they been revamped or am I just blonde? Michael Potter
