Yup! My friend and his missus have a 2001 Nissan micra and he has a 2003 SL55 AMG as his toy... Guess which one Isn't compliant??

Yup, the Micra!

Just doesn't make Any sense...!

As an SL55 owner I know it makes perfect sense, I too would tax micras just for being on the road.

Terry loves a 202!!

Im partial to one too. If I hadn't just bought the clk I would have had your hand off.

He's always insisted on first dibs, so thought it only fair to sell her to him... She'll be his daily so she'll be looked after, him and Jamie both known me since I bought the car so they're aware of how well she's been maintained...

I'm currently emptying her out of my belongings, I'm not gonna lie I've actually had the waterworks on whilst doing it, so many memories, such a brilliant, brilliant little motor.

F*ck man, I'm almost changing my mind... :/

Funny that, my guess was either Alex or Terry.

So what's the replacement gonna be?

Replacement will be German, and also maintained like I have maintained my W202, fastidiously... Not so great on fuel, about the same as the W202 but a lot faster... And, petrol... Most importantly, ULEZ Compliant!!!

She's gone, been a few days now but still miss seeing her outside my front door.

Her new owner will do her well, has everyone to make sure she's cared for like I looked after her...

Oh dear !
Actually my mate has an Audi and it's the best car he's ever had. I can't fault it and the build quality is excellent. Guess what, no rust either !!!

I have to say in the week I've been driving it, it's been a solid car, actually more comfort than my W202 as this has lumber support, has silly amount of power due to the previous owner sorting the car out (easily one of the best mechanics I know, works for Wayne Gates), and despite all that power, has delivered 44mpg+ all week! That's 5 more than my W202 on a normal day!

I thought so!

What did he replace it with?

Haha!

He's driving his W124 on a daily flex now, which is good as he didn't like it just sitting there whilst he used the A3 as a daily.

This A3 though, he's definitely looked after it... Well, it's Jamie ain't it lol.
