Even in my normal middle class street there are quite a few pre 2000
vehicles.

I think it's only old diesels that are affected. Small old cars are rarely
diesels.

Is it only diesels? Yes, there will be fewer of them about except for
transits
which seem to go on forever.

Much newer diesels than petrol-engined cars will be subject to the charge:

Thats the current low emissions zone. Who knows what the rules will be for
the extended one out to the north circ if he goes ahead with it.

Will be interesting to see if Kahn intends to apply this rule to buses, some
of which are knocking on a bit out in the suburbs where old buses go to die.

Just curious, why do you call him "Kahn"?

Kahn, Khan, who cares, he's a prick however you spell his name. Anyway, its
probably because that maker of bling range rovers is spelt k-a-h-n and thats
the only other one I know.
