In February we went to see the Tutankhamen exhibition in the Saatchi Gallery. We haven’t been to central London for years, just Brooklands a couple of times. I didn’t fancy the rigmarole of sorting out congestion charges so we booked a hotel in Hounslow, just inside the zone and used Oyster cards for public transport. We were on a good bus route and Underground link. So much easier! I checked the TFL website for LEZ/ULEZ charges but none applied to the tin top. I asked at hotel reception for confirmation and they agreed. Next, out of curiosity I checked the Morgan and it was exempt too. A 2002 Plus8! I found the TFL website ok for buying visitor Oyster cards and the vehicle liability checks as it was just basic stuff. I do question the clarity for non standard circumstances though. Why not put an early question in to distinguish between uk reg vehicles and non uk that channels you appropriately? I would think that for London that would apply due to the frequency of non uk vehicles. It does look as though some improvements have been made.
It was an enjoyable couple of days just before Covid escalation.
