People may recall that in the first half of October I swapped my car for
a ULEZ compliant one.

Imagine my surprise, to receive a Penalty Notice today, quoting the
correct vehicle description (not for example the old one from which
the numberplate was transferred) for driving in Gunnersbury on the
17th November. Complete with a thumbnail photo of my new car.

I had checked this weeks ago, but did it again just now, and the TfL
website confirms it's ULEZ complaint, as indeed had the dealer who
sold it to me.

I feel a call to The Daily Mail coming on.

What would be suitable compensation for the distress and inconvenience
caused? As a bare minimum the threatened penalty of £180.

They claim they want to see V5's, registration transfer documents and
manufacturer's specifications as proof it's compliant, BUT THEIR VERY
OWN WEBSITE CONFIRMS IT IS!!
