Hello all I’m sure this has been asked many times but I have searched so... I’m moving back to the UK after a while and ulez coming out to the south circular has snuck up on me. When I put the reg of a few Discovery 2 4l v8’s around the 2003-2004 mark into the ulez checkers online, they pass...

Hey so click thanks for the info that’s very useful and probably moves this vehicle out of the maybe pile as it puts it over it’s value really.
