Hey everyone,
Hope you're all doing well!
I'm from Belgium and thinking about ordering an LC250 with the 2.8 diesel.
Unfortunately, the prices here in Europe are quite a bit higher compared to North America. But honestly, price isn’t my biggest worry — I’m more concerned about future regulations, especially all the new restrictions on diesel engines in Europe.
In Belgium, the current plan is to ban the sale of diesel cars and limit their access to Low Emission Zones (mostly the centers of big cities).
From what I’ve heard, entering a Low Emission Zone with a banned diesel will cost €35 per day, and you'll only be allowed to do it 25 times per year.
So I wanted to get your thoughts — do you think it still makes sense to order one?
As far as I know, there’s no plan to offer the LC250 with a petrol engine here.
My idea is to keep the car for many years, but if restrictions keep getting tighter, I might not even be able to drive it where I need to.
Would love to hear your opinions!
