Oh OK Coffee thanks.
Presumably issued after spending the five grand or so for a cat.
I just noticed that the LEZ new London regs are starting off with polluting trucks. And then coaches and buses will follow that.
Has anyone seen the ■■■■■ the London Transport buses kick out.?
I think Ken has lost the plot again

That is one option although many Euro2 vehicles will have had an RPC from new as it means you get cheaper road tax (500quid a year cheaper if you’re running at 44t).
My understanding is that the RPC has to be renewed each year too to ensure it is kept up to date. I’m not sure if this might entail improving the standards year on year though or whether it’s just to ensure that your emissions haven’t gone up.

Repton, Where have you seen that euro 2 vehicles with a RPC can enter london without paying the £200 ■■? I went to their website and entered my mates scania registration that has a RPC and it said it was not eligable■■?

This link states that “GB-registered vehicles must be fitted with devices which meet the requirements of either the Reduced Pollution Certificate (RPC) or Low Emission Certificate (LEC)”
They get the data from the DVLA database it seems, and so all I can guess is that the DVLA don’t have the right information about your Scania’s RPC. Presumably you can update it somehow, this link might help you.

I’ll try and explain what Im trying to say so here goes!!! I dont think the RPC they are describing is the same as our RPC that got us £500 off the road tax. they seem to be mentioning modifications using “traps” in the exaust system and if I am correct these cost £3000 plus??

Hmm, you could be right. If you are then they could have picked a better term to describe it! I’ve had a quick google around and I can’t find anything to confirm either way. Perhaps you should contact them and try and clarify it?
