keith1948 Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Note that historic vehicles are exempt in the new Birmingham Clean Air Zone which comes into force in January 2020. The car has to be built before 8th January 1979. https://www.birmingham.gov.uk/info/20076/pollution/1763/a_clean_air_zone_for_birmingham/7 Keep on TRucking Keith Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Forey Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 Good to see the theory spelt out in black and white. If only all cities across Europe were so clear. The 40 year rule is meant to be applied consistently for all ULEZ but it is hard to get such a clear statement as this. Well done Birmingham. Mick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobH Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) It was working OK yesterday Howard but today it seems to have changed and you have to click on the 'search' box which then brings up a list of all the documents which you can click on individually to see them.

Graham Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Spoke to a friend the other day, He was telling me that he was taking his wife's horse box for an MOT, found the garage that was doing it but was told to take it to another site entrance, he managed to get a bit lost and in doing so he entered the London emission zone and got fined £1000. He managed to get it down to £200 on appeal but a bit of a shock never the less. Nor was he happy with the MOT garage for not warning him! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MilesA Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 So that will be a motorised horsebox of more than 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight getting an MoT in central London? Is that because there are limited numbers of MoT stations for vehicles of this size? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Hello Paul Not exactly correct - if you read the details which states that although some groups will have limited exemptions, this is what it says for historical vehicles:- "Vehicles with disabled or disabled passenger tax class, motorcycles, show vehicles and historical vehicles - All years" Keith Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Miles to be honest I don,t know much more save to say the clean air zone extends quite a way to the West of London as far as I’m aware so not central London and the horse box was built on an ex fire brigade control vehicle Oh and the best bit is it still has the fire engine horn on it .......so useful on a horse box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
