Found this hidden away in the World Wide Wait, its a Free Emissions Tool below to check the Euro Emissions Standard of your car against the Vehicles Reg Number, which will be handy for all the Up and Coming Emission Tax Charging currently being rolled out or planned in Cities around the UK and the Planet.

Its actually an APi Plug In but works as a stand alone if you use the My Link, handy on the Phone, save as Favorite or Add link to Home Screen from the Browser.  :y

Euro's 2 and 4.  :)

I'm surprised that my BMW has any Euro rating to be honest.  :-\

In a Nut Shell Euro 3 means dont even think about driving into London next Year without prior arrangement with your Bank Manager  ;D

How old is the Merc?, if it Pre Euro something or other or if the VRM been changed (Private Plate) then probably wont look up, or if its been registered as Alternative, Dual Fuel or Bi Fuel, etc, may not have a Euro Standard or its dropped off the DVLA Register.

Omega and Battlebus is Euro3.  Shag is Euro5.

Not sure either impacts me yet, but it will be a way of forcing everyone onto unrealistic cars, or worse, onto dirty Victorian transport.

Shows it would be easy enough by reg number to fine, charge or exclude heavy polluters from city central areas.

Three of the most polluted cities in Spain are in Andalucia ( I think the geography doesnt  allow air dispersion) . I am fully expecting bans very soon.

Probably wont be long before its 'Coming to a Cinema near you soon' so to speak, think Birmingham is Up next, followed by Manchester, Glasgow to name a few.

London Has its Congestion Charge, LEZ and T Charge already in place, ULEZ next Year and Extended ULEZ 2021 or 2020 if Mayor gets Hes way and before they introduce the next Wave, seems to be different rules for each Charge or they can all be added together, could prove to be an expensive Day Out if Peeps are not on the ball

My Omega and V70 both Euro 3.I believe we're at Euro 6 at present so middle ground as it stands.Luckily I don't drive in any cities and certainly not that Lundun place!

I checked my Omega on the TFL website last year and it said it wouldn't be subject to the charge, which I found surprising.
190 is 1990, so long before Euroshite regs I would imagine.

Mine is Euro3 as per most others here, currently ULEZ expansion is just shy of the office, so won’t impact the commute.

If they tweak ULEZ or expand it further, my 3.2 will be up for sale.  :'(

TFL dont use the Euro or DVLA Data Base for Look Up, they use there Own which there probably still building so expect it to drop off the System before the New Zone kicks in.

Having said that, when I checked the current working T Charge over Xmas last Year, a 3.2 was showing as payable, where as my Ex Plod 3.2 Manual was saying No Charge, so not sure what thats all about unless the 3.2 Manuals are Euro 4 compliant.  :-\

Year 2021 will be the next Tweak, North and South Circular as it stands at the moment, but there probably go as far as the current LEZ Zone for Vans shortly after that.
