The Euro 4 minimum spec for petrol in these zones does seem to go back some way before 2006 for various cars.
However they get us in other ways. Yes, car tax is still only £360 a year for those that bust the 225g/km rate if registered before 23 March 2006 (it should be £615) but councils are racking up rates on parking permits and pay and display.
In Islington there is petrol surcharge of £3.15 an hour for pay bays on cars over 225g/km. The diesel surcharge for all cars is £5.10 an hour!
