This is an option. It isn't so bad to just keep it for long drives and bike trips. The electric car is actually fine for day trips ~100 miles each way. The bigger car has such a neat 4x bike carrier on the tow bar though, and space for 4x adults and camping equipment to match.
We'll give it a go selling outside London. But I don't think we'll find anything as nice and well looked after as a ULEZ safe replacement.
In Germany there's a company doing Euro 5 to Euro 6 conversion kits fitted for €3600. That's too much. But interesting.

I’ve just realised that even only keeping it for long journeys, if you leave one day, and return the next, that’ll be £30 a pop. And you’ll obviously still be taxing and insuring it. So even just leaving it in the garage is costing you.
Interesting about the conversion kits. It really wouldn’t surprise me if that becomes a much more common thing. If ULEZ is rolled out nationwide, there will just be a massive surplus of non-compliant cars.
Doesn’t help you right now I know.

You only have to pay on days you drive it. For occasional use cars it could make sense to just pay rather than swap it.
