That is the bit I don't get. You can have motorbikes tested and pass. Even two strokes motorbikes pass as it the emmissions are for oxides of nitrogen. So if motorbikes pass petrol cars will.
You could get 'stuff' for commercial vehicles (extra catalysers) to reduce the NOx readings of a diesel is there space to fit the bits. But on quite a few vehicles it wasn't economically viable.

A few have enquired about converting to LPG which would meet emissions but have been told it cannot be reclassed which is piss poor in my opinion.
I can get to work without going inside the South Circular but you can bet that will be a nightmare with everyone else doing it also, I can see it causing absolute chaos on the roads.

I don't think they'll accept the V5c figures. I'm not sure they'll even accept independent test results, though could well be wrong on that.
They want a piece of paper from the homologation department of the manufacturer with your VIN on it, the NOX level, and signed by a named individual. I had to do it with mine, as I live about a mile inside the expansion zone to the West.
