Re: Best Engine to Meet Euro 4 or 6 Emissions? ULEZ issue

No T3 will pass an IVA - not going to happen!!

Interestingly I checked my westy (1981 historic class) and it still says I have to pay ULEZ !

Oh man, thats not good news. I'm not a WBX guy but does the manifold bolt into the threaded holes?  Would it be possible to use an exhaust stud with some kind of loctite to bung it ?
