• 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.

    :(

    I think you're underestimating how little a lot of Londoners drive their cars in anger, at least pre-Covid. If you started assigning the cost of ownership to each trip, £30 is buttons.

    (though I'm glad people are just geting rid. Diesel cars and vans were a huge mistake)

    They're only ever going to be implemented in a few city centres that most of the UK population never drive into.
