Ulez

[ChrisN53]

The ULEZ is NOT applicable to my 2006 3000cc petrol Z4 Coupe. But it IS applicable to my 2012 3000cc diesel C350...

...they have to use the Blackwall Tunnel

Is that tunnel so named because of soot being spewed out of Diesel engined vehicles passing through it ?

It's okay as the residents of Londonshire can all crowd onto the tube

The Baking Loo line trains would have been bliss today

So - I've just gone through the TFL check for ULEZ and my CLK55 AMG on a June 2003 plate (W209) is exempt according to the online tool. I find that somewhat surprising!

I live within the north and south circular area where the extended ULEZ comes into effect in 2021 and was thinking about selling 'the beast' but am thinking twice now. Also - you used to be able to pick these up for £5k but they all seem to be going for £8k now (albeit for lower mileage ones).

On a side note - the London councils are actively blocking roads as part of the mini Holland scheme and making it more difficult to live with a car in London. It should also be noted that these schemes are a trial for country wide bans from cities in the UK...so to the smug gits in this post - make the most of it ;-)

Is there an upward trend for CLK55s in general? Not many of them on the road anyway - is rarity pushing the price up?

It has recently been announced that pre 2005 cars will soon be banned in Glasgow city centre , no charges to go in , just a ban .
