Evening everyone, 

Join a Claim: Check if your old diesel cars are eligible for £000's compensation each from the ongoing High Court Diesel-gate trials

Educate: What is all this "Diesel-gate" stuff?

6 weeks of the High Court case have gone by, we've about 6 weeks left.

The diesel-gate trial is currently ongoing in the UK High Courts. This week, Ford finished giving evidence and Peugeot/Citroën began giving evidence to try to prove they didn't use illegal "defeat devices" to cheat emissions tests on their diesel cars. But there are three other manufacturers also giving evidence in the current trial, with another nine manufactures being reviewed in a later case.

If they are found guilty, then this will likely be the largest mass action compensation pay out the UK has ever seen, even bigger than the PPI scandal and far far bigger than the current car finance scandal that the FCA are currently deciding compensation for. The expectation is that millions of UK car owners will receive £000's in compensation from this. 

To be eligible, you must have owned one of the affected diesel cars, produced between 2008 and 2020, it doesn't matter if you no longer own that car, you may still be eligible. To check if you can join these class action claims and possibly receive compensation, click the link at the top and enter your registration plate! 

Compensation will be paid PER CAR, not per person, so if you've owned multiple diesel cars then make sure to join a claim with each registration plate.

Thanks all, have a great week!
