    In the light of posts by Lukeledge and Young Thomas who, it would appear have similar vehicles, I have today submitted an online enquiry to TfL as to why my classification has changed. I wait with bated breath. In the absence of a response, I'm wondering whether it's worth contacting a newspaper, the Daily Mail perhaps, to raise the issue.

    For further clarification my engine is 150bhp and plated at 3500Kg.

    Is My Campervan Compliant?

    One aspect of determining whether your Camper meets the regulations, is quite straightforward. All the charging zones use the same standards to determine whether vehicles comply.

    For petrol and hybrid campers, they have to comply with the Euro 4 Euro emission standard. Any petrol or hybrid vehicle registered from 1st January 2006 is ULEZ compliant.
    For diesel campers, they have to comply with the Euro 6 Euro emission standard. Any Diesel vehicle registered from 1st September 2015 is ULEZ compliant.

    CY, the above is from this website....

    obviously need to confirm officially, as below, but this suggests yours should be compliant.

     

    As Wales and Northern Ireland are not currently participating in vehicle charging schemes, you can drive around their cities without charge. For Scotland and England, you need to check your charges.

    Each nation has its own number plate checker website, which gives you the latest details of charges you can incur, and details of possible exemptions available, if you are not compliant.

    England Checker: https://vehiclecheck.drive-clean-air-zone.service.gov.uk/vehicle_checkers/enter_details

    Checked the situation on the link you suggested for England and, with the exception of Portsmouth, where I'd catch my local bus anyway, they all want a few quid. It doesn't, however, have anything about TfL ULEZ.

    Is your engine 150bhp without AdBlu the same as mine?

    Yes, but a year newer that yours and in that period after Sept '16, where I posted earlier where the euro 6 engine was released.

    I think the best way to beat the ULEZ is to hope the people of Greater London vote out Mr Khan. If I pay £12.50 the air won’t change it will still be the same, I’m grumbling because I’m fed up with being ripped off because I enjoy caravanning.
