Well just got an email confirming that conning **** Khan is expanding the area massively from August
despite the lack of evidence that it will NOT make ANY significant difference
BUT it does mean all the car owners with diesel or petrol engines that fly thru the MOT smoke emission tests will now have to be scrapped
me for instance have a 2003 Peugeot 406 rapier estate
that has had a Peugeot fitted new engine and clutch I have spared no expense replacing anything as and when needed and sounds and drives like a brand new car

SIMPLY because of its huge luggage capacity I can drive my motorised Fox explorer straight in the back so its as good as any van but got all the luxury of a quality estate car
so my question is with a very limited budget 3 to 5 grand tops what the hell ? comes close to the specs and is ULEZ compliant ???
gutted

A quick look and the obvious car to suggest from me is a volvo v70 estate will fit into your budget.

Unfortunately ulez compliant cars are at a premium for obvious reasons


Ps the evidence stated that the benefits of brining this in would likely be negligible at best.

It's a joke, my 2nd car, which is a 2014 C4 with a little 1.6 engine can go into all of them except Bristol, which is my nearest big city.

Yet my previous car a 2018 Ford Mustang no issue at all?

Go figure

The sooner Khan is out of his post as the mayor of London the better
Can't think of anything he as done to make London any better then it was before his appointment as Mayor

If you ditched a mustang for a C4 then you should be banned from driving altogether..

Joke btw

its never going to happen that he is voted out as I know for a fact over 75% of london properties are now owned by foreign owners and they all vote for him

It's very sad, he's lost the public but does not care.
Rishi asked him in PMQs a month ago to stop.

This is going to hit a lot of folk hard.

Khan ,needs to be removed,just the same as Jacinda Arden has been removed,the same genre,the same methods..

Arden is a well known supporter of WEF...I wonder if Mr Khan,who is not a proper londoner is a WEF ,green washing ,agenda idiot as well..

I'm no fan of the man, but there are literally no facts in your post.

She resigned. Not removed.

As for Khan not being a 'proper londoner' ... how surprising

At a time when hardworking families are struggling as it is and yet another tax..

Of course everyone can afford to buy a new car 👍🏼
