All vehicles registered as Historic are ULEZ exempt. The computer system may not reflect this though. There's a section on Historic vehicles in the TFL document.

I have not driven in London since Wendy gave up working down there in the mid 1990s. I would not want to be in the position of challenging TFL once the fines had been issued with all the implications of court threats, credit score impact & warding off Bailiff's etc.😁

We got two fines last year when staying over at relatives, spent so much time watching my speed I didn't even notice the ULEZ zone and we thought our Tiguan was compliant. Anyway we thought what's the harm in appealing so did and haven't ever heard back from them.
ULEZ dodged!

There's an ongoing war between motorists and the recent expansion of the ULEZ in London. So many ULEZ camera's have been damaged or torn down the mayor has resorted to buying a fleet of vans equipped with CCTV to catch motorists. Whenever these are parked people deliberately park cars and vans directly behind them to block the CCTV camera. It's either this or standing in front of the camera with placards. Things have become so bad the mayor has now employed 'security guards' to travel in the vans. They are nothing more than hired thugs. They tried to force a couple of protesters away from a can in Hillingdon on Wednesday. The police were called and told the security guards they had no rights to prevent a peaceful protest! Last week Croydon Council issued two FPN's on two CCTV vans as they have not given the mayor permission to operate these vans for enforcement purposes. Other London boroughs have done the same. ULEZ is one big con and has nothing to do with saving the environment, it's a cash cow and an unfair tax on the motorist and those who cannot afford a ULEZ compliant vehicle.
