"The hunt is on for 4x4s and old diesels"

If London follows I may be heading home sooner than I thought

ahh yes, we are the evils. The zone will be renamed though "Zones of non-rescue during heavy snow fall"

London will become a no go area starting 2012, all commercial derived vehicles over 1250kgs ie: pickups & vans will have to meet Euro3 emission levels.

Check your vehicle here if it is commercial based:-- https://lowemissionzone.tfl.gov.uk/b/pb ... VRM.faces#

There was a thread somewhere on the old site about someone who had (or knew of someone who had) to help a lady out of a ditch one snowy day...In the rear window she had a "No to 4x4s" sticker... Oh the dilemma...

Dave -
Are you not allowed in if you paid the daily £250 (IIRC?) tax? LBC had people calling in about it. A father and son removals company would effectively close down because they had one truck and would have to pass on the tax to their customers....

The TFL site has a whole section on Land Rovers, they even have their own compliance flow chart!!
