Hi folks
 not sure this is relevent but I have recieved  a warning letter from transport for london about my van being too old to have low emmission levels and suggested I get a certified filter fitted ,as the low emmission zone comes into force in 2012 if I don't I cannot travel to london venues without possibly incurring a fine of £100, filters have been quoted as costing £1500 upwards Angry  has anybody else had a letter to the same effect.

Park the van on the edge and ride the last bit? Or ask someone to come and get you? £100 really does sound a total ripoff!
Current fleet: Milan SL MK2 #027, Fujin SL II, Beany!

Hi Alan
in reply to your question my van is R reg whatever that year is, it seems it only applies to diesel vehicles, thanks Lee for that advice maybe worth a try.
