Talk Morgan Forums Community The Malvern Arms London ULEZ Zone

As I may be taking the 4/4 into London in April, following a visit to Goodwood, I thought that I would check if it is ULEZ compliant.
To my amazement and bearing in mind it is a 20 year old ‘black top’ Zetec - It’s OK


Very pleased and (if we go) it will be parked overnight in underground secure parking.

Just checked and all my vehicles are London ULEZ compliant including near 80 year old bike and 57 year old diesel Land Rover

I use The Union Jack Club when visiting London Village, central with sensible costs with their own secure underground car parking, last time I took the Plus 8 a Gurkha was on duty so I slipped him a tenner.

Thought I'd check mine sliver top zetec,on first site to come up all ok but linked to motorway we sell your car also checked with London transport site and charges occur.

It's all that ash & leather, offsets the carbon you know

The good old UJC been my home from home on many occasions, a wonderful location with good accommodation at great prices.

Back in 2019 I checked my Plus8 and ok. I was going to Hounslow just outside the then zone but in the tintop that was compliant anyway. Tube/buses used to get round. Oyster Card for payment. The hotel confirmed I was outside the zone.
In 2021 I rechecked the Mog and non compliant.
Check made using the reg number. It appears that non mainstream vehicles can be missed being added onto their database. I might see if the corresponding Discovery with the same engine fares the same.
Just did a TFL check on the Plus8. It is ok for ULEZ ! Just congestion charge to apply.
I wonder how the previous check was different?
No big deal though as unlikely to go in the Mog. Brooklands is about the only likely destination.

Warning
I’ve just re-checked using the TFL site, having originally used the same site Pickles mentions.
TFL advise me that the ULEZ charge applies to my 4/4.

Are you sure Bud? My 2009 4/4 is ULEZ compliant and its older than yours?
I can see the congestion charge applies but not ULEZ.

EDIT: I may have misread your post as I saw 2011 and assumed that was the age of your car

As a matter of interest Ichecked my tin top for compliance, which it does. The zone is being expanded to cover our old school.
Then, prompted by these posts, I thought I would check my Morgan. Apparently it meets the ULEZ emissions standards!!
As it dates from 1956 with a twin carb TR3 engine I am very suprised. Maybe it's because it's a classic.
Not that I am likely to take it up to London any time soon.
