They did this to save money, but they waste so much money elsewhere (dig around the back issues of Space and you'll find the £30k per year chauffeur to ride the chancellor around). The policy of not letting first year students bring cars has nothing to do with their new 'green' approach. It's been the policy since they expanded the University. Residents were worried that expanding the Uni would grind traffic to a halt, so the Uni made this concession to them. They only added it in as part of their green policy once they realized it would strengthen their cause.
