Unfortunately for us in the UK, in 9 years time (2030) we will have no choice, as our gov't announced a ban on all new ICE engines.

There is a 5 years extension for hybrid, but I believe that is only plug-in style powertrains (I.e. it doesn't cover mild hybrids with integrated starter/generators like the M340i).

So while I agree synthetic fuels are very interesting, we won't get the chance to see in the UK if the gov't follows through and implements its announcement - which is looking very likely.
