Hello
I have read that if a log book states "Estate" in the details then the Land Rover is LEZ compliant, even the older counties?. My vehicle is compliant at the moment as it is a 2003 110 TD5 county station wagon but I have heard that there are to be stricter changes. DVLA wont give me any information so I am hoping someone out there may be able to advise. My log book does say "Estate".
Many thanks
Basilica

I doubt that the DVLA would know too many of the details about LEZ; the London Environtmental Zone, it's not in their remit.
For further details of LEZ I would suggest that you try contacting "Transport for London" at the office of the Mayor ..... Boris.

My understanding of it is that if it's an original county and/or says 'estate' on the V5, then it's classed as a passenger car and so the LEZ restrictions don't apply. If it's been converted or Boris has the wrong details, you can get it changed but may have to jump through a few hoops in the process. If you've got a diesel pickup or hardtop, bad luck.

I assume you'll have found that bit of the Transport for London website where you can put the registration number in and it'll tell you whether you're compliant

I was pleasantly surprised to discover my TD5 was compliant.

As to new legislation coming along in the future, who can say?

It may well be that the requirements will be raised like in some German cities "E" zones , where doesnt matter whether car or commercial !
