Just in case you don't already know the low emission zone kicked in for buses on 31st Dec and will kick in for cars 31st Dec '22.
Lots of details to be fleshed out but long story short is if you not a euro 6 diesels (sept 15) or euro 5 petrol (Jan 06) then you'll be charged for entering city centre.
I've got under 4 years to pick a replacement for the volvo. Panic!

I guess this must have hit first bus quite hard as their busses all seemed to be coal powered...

Awesome so my polluting-hated diesel is fine.
What about vans? Deliveries and the like?

I didn’t, knew about London
Surprised Glasgow is further forward in planning than the other Scottish cities.

I don't think anyone has ever looked at you and thought "that man is living in the future"
dream world? yes
the past? yes
whippet world? probably
