Plate Value 1.4 Petrol

[JWT]

I am considering an A2 Colour Storm from Germany - I live in France so it avoids any import duty etc and also gives me a LHD car for the French roads. Before I look at anything seriously I am asking about the last HU (MOT) emission result - can anyone who has a 1.4 petrol confirm the plate value from the sticker in their vehicle ? Thanks

Hi
Happy to have a look, is this the sticker in the boot? Just got to run my son to the station so can look when I get back

Do you mean these

Thanks - no its the sticker under your passenger side carpet on the metal itself - the 1.4TDI has a plate value of 0.70 so just need the 1.4 petrol value.

I'm pretty sure the plate value, for emissions, is a diesel thing, not petrol.
Any how, it only applied to vehicles registered after 2008. I say applied, because it was withdrawn in 2019, see here.

This is UK MoT only.

Hi

I’m not sure of the situation in France. Judging by some recent threads it looks like France is becoming much more stringent for diesels and may well also be strict for petrol. I’m also not sure if this is the ‘plate value’ being requested but I thought I’d give it a go
