I live in inner London within the ULEZ zone. ULEZ is about local pollution not GHG and even then the newest cars it affected were 8 years old. My 15 year old car was fine. If anything it didn’t go far enough.
for me it means there are areas in Oxford that are off-limits, it also means that many cars are just not on the market anymore because of the new emission normatives and that many ICE cars from the last decade have delicate crappy engines as you can only go so efficient before you compromise on durability
