Many drivers believe that buying a used car is one of the cheapest ways to get around - and they're right. But there's a number of hidden costs that could see you pay over the odds
Motorists have been given a series of tips to help them avoid unexpected costs when purchasing their next second-hand car. Many drivers view buying a used car as one of the most economical ways to travel.
Emission zones, which are becoming increasingly popular in city centres and across the London region, encourage the purchase of cleaner, modern vehicles by imposing an entry fee on non-compliant models, which can be as high as £12.50 per day. Consequently, drivers who enter a zone in a non-compliant vehicle each day could end up spending an additional £4,550 per year than they had planned.
However, classic cars first registered over 40 years ago and electric vehicles of any age are automatically compliant, with disabled drivers also eligible for an exemption from the fee, reports the Express.
