Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Both my Westfield and Red Neck pickup also count as low emission vehicles, so that’s a bunch of bull c**p then, to use the red neck term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 My Westfield and diesel X-Type both fall into the charge bracket, but my 2.2 litre Z3, my son's Z4M and his Audi RS4 are all exempt. Admittedly the Pinto engined 1994 built Westfield is a dirty exhaust breather, but the X-Type is Euro 4 and is pretty good compared with a 3.2 litre Z4M or a 4.2 litre Audi. Crazy... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Barstewards. This is what I get. And I have a cat on mine You are subject to the ULEZ. From 8 April 2019 if you travel in the ULEZ you will need to pay the daily ULEZ charge. This is because your vehicle does not meet the ULEZ standards*.

Captain Colonial Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Mine is exempt too. Makes me feel like driving through London in a low gear and setting off car alarms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 My 13 year old tin top Volvo S60 D5 diesel is also exempt. Not surprised, it’s always been incredibly clean, doesn’t even register on the test equipment during MOTs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to bother me. Now I just drive the damn thing and have a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised at that. My 55 plate diesel Focus says no charge, as does the green meenie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 My 1998 Redtop is chargeable in the ULEZ but free in the current LEZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My green car is pre SVA and has a 95 red top in there and it's showing as free in the ULEZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps yours is a later spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vogalogue Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I didn't expect that! Assumed they'd still have it down as an old clattery diesel. Westie is good to go too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
