Stage 1 remapping in Enfield
Diesel cars are holding their ground in Enfield. The council area had 17,803 privately kept diesel cars at the end of June 2026, against 18,258 a year earlier, a fall of 2.5% that is the 5th smallest of the 104 largest towns we cover. Diesel is still a minority, at 16.3% of private cars against 67.4% on petrol. For those who hold on to one, the case for Stage 1 remapping rests on mid-range torque: on the A10 and A406 a remapped diesel pulls from low revs without hunting for a lower gear. Nothing is bolted on. The fuel, boost and timing settings are changed in software, within the engine's limits.

Driving in and around Enfield
London's ULEZ covers all London boroughs, Enfield included, though not the M25 itself, and it charges cars and vans daily. A remap does not change an engine's emissions standard, so it cannot change whether a vehicle pays. The M25, A10, A406 and A110 are among the borough's main roads, and South Mimms Services on the A1(M) is 10 km away. In the 2021 Census, 18.5% of working residents in the Enfield council area travelled 10 km or more to work, and 32.5% drove. In 2025 MOT tests across EN postcodes, the Mercedes-Benz E Class and C Class were the most tested diesel cars, and the Ford Transit led the diesel vans. For a large diesel saloon on the M25, Stage 1 mostly means easier overtaking.
