Morning all, hope everyone is well.
I’m hoping someone may be able to help.
I have a P reg S1 Elise and according to TfL this doesn’t meet ULEZ requirements - assume to do with the v5 from back then not having sufficient data etc.
Does anyone have a working knowledge of proving that it is compliant (I think it is) and then getting their car exempt?
Thanks

Think this may have sadly been a waste of time and money, managed to get a CoC via Bell and Colvill and put an application into TfL and they’ve just written back and told me that my car doesn’t meet the standard.
According to TfL the NOx level needs to be less that 0.08g/km, and according to the CoC report he Elise is 0.76g/in so almost 10x over the limit.
Feel like I’ve been done up like a kipper. What a waste of £150!

In all honesty, no, but that element took all of 5 minutes and was free.
TfL are very unclear as to what is compliant or not, and taking SELOC, Autocar and Bell and Colvill’s info at face value meant I assumed it was.

To be fair, I’d read somewhere that the emissions were ok, but the ULEZ bit and the CoC are out by one decimal place….

Sorted. New CoC issued by lotus, and TfL have now sent confirmation of exemption.
