I don't think they will for quite a while. If you assume that most of their thinking seems to be based on the two reports they commissioned known as the King reports, they seem to acknowledge the benefits to the British economy of new technology and greener vehicles, which they see as opportunities for increased UK wealth and employment as the majority change their vehicles.
They seem to be quite happy with a minority, which I think they consider as weird, having classic cars, tractors, engines etc. Since they see this as a very small part of the overall vehicle numbers, I think they'll leave us alone, especially if they think we'll all be buying nice new green cars to use as daily drivers.
I hope this is the way it goes as it will mean they leave club motorsport alone as long as they see all the professional series going green.
