Congestion charging and LPG conversions

For those of us that run our Petrol Engined LR's on LPG..... or indeed anyone that "knows the answer"....

How does one get those nice folk at Transport For London (aka Red-Ken's stealth-tax gestapo) to recognise that one's so-called "chelsea-tractor" runs on LPG and therefore should be exempt from the dreaded charge?

The biggest issues I can see are:

  1. Unless your car was built "dual-fuel" no-one wants to know.
  2. There doesn't seem to be a process for getting an LPGA certificate on a second-hand motor.
3.TFL/RED-Ken only recognises "certain" LPG conversion companies.

Has anyone navigated these choppy waters yet...and can they advise?

Regards,

Dan.

Well Mr Bliar stated today that they will ignore the 1.7 million signatures against road charging and push ahead. The only folks it will hit are the poor. The rich and MP's will just charge it to us via taxes. If they can waste 29.7 million quid on smoke police then why the **** do they need to hit the motorist? I really do think it is past time that the British motorist hit back.

You can get your installation certified, but you have to be on the approved vehicle list to get it congestion charge exempted.

you dont.

Its all quite stupid.

No - it just shows what it's all about - not sorting out congestion but collecting money.
