I shudder at the thought of the last one.
One of the arguments in the oldies favour would be that it takes more to dig up ore, smelter, refine, etc to produce a new car than it does to keep an old polluter running around.

There is more metal in the old ones than the new ones so recycling will make more safer cars.......
Pleas note; I do not support doing this, I am just showing the potential counterpoints the bad guys might use and they are a LOT better at lobbying than me.
