The TV star stressed that demand for second-hand vehicles has \u201cspread across the country\u201d with dealerships based in London running out of stock.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s meant that all the dealers on the fringes of London have had their used car stock exhausted.<\/p>\n \u201cIf it\u2019s a ULEZ compliant car or van it\u2019s been exhausted and now ULEZ customers are looking further afield. I’m certainly feeling that all the way up in Sheffield. The customers are coming out of London to try and get their used car stock elsewhere because all the dealers in London have been exhausted of stock.\u201d<\/p>\n Mr Khan\u2019s scheme expanded the \u00a312.50 per day charge to Outer London areas such as Harrow and Bromley despite opposition.<\/p>\n Some of these areas can be cut off from Central London and do not have the same level of public transport infrastructure as Zone One.<\/p>\n DON’T MISS <\/strong> <\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
