Guest Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I drive into Sadiq Khans cash generator a couple of times a year, it's not worth buying a Ulez compliant car, even if I could afford one, for the sake of an extra £25, £12.5 in £12.5 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some CAZ give exemptions for charities, but not if the vehicle was bought after 2022, people living outside the zone get no help. I don't mind paying the small fee, its being given 7 days to pay which I believe is unfair, that and the cost of the letter being £103 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peak4 Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 3 hours ago, El Cid said: If they just allowed one vehicle below a certain Co2 level per person as a private vehicle, that would be fairer, but they don't want to lower emissions, it's all about raising money. They couldn't possibly tax the wealthy with their big cars. CAZs aren't about CO2 though, that gets covered by Vehicle Excise Duty. It's about NOx and particulates. I have to be careful myself as my van is 2007, so not exempt; that it's private and not business use is immaterial. Folk can check registration numbers here; note that this is for CAZ not London ULEZ or congestion charges; rules also vary from area to area. https://vehiclecheck.drive-clean-air-zone.service.gov.uk/vehicle_checkers/enter_details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
