Caz

[sparky]

Hi does any body know if a burstner 2014 diesel will have to pay caz charge for bath

Google knows.
Just put your reg'n no. in here and it'll tell you if you need to pay (and the charge if applicable):

Check your vehicle and pay the charge | Bath and North East Somerset Council

Payment is made by credit card or debit card on a pay-as-you-go basis at GOV.UK’s Drive in a Clean Air Zone Service unless you are registered for a local discount

Motorhomes tend to be diesel. For the Bath CAZ, diesels need to be Euro 6.

Motorhomes are a bit complicated as their manufactured date is fuzzy, but the transition to Euro 6 didn't happen until 2016-2017.

So your 2014 van won't be compliant and you'd have to pay. I'm not sure what the charge would be. I think it depends on how you're taxed. I'm guessing that 3.5t vehicles will pay £9 and everything over would pay £100!

In that case take and save a screen shot in order to dispute the fine.
It is after all their own website with the link in the first reply I gave earlier.
They do seem to have given themselves a bit of wriggle room with this on their website:

We live just outside Bath.
We’ve registered to pay the £9 instead of £100 - not sure if that’s an option open to non residents.

Having said that we won’t give them a penny anyway - going so far as changing our MOT garage, which is just inside the zone - even though it’s on a recognised HGV route!

Be careful because the signs are absent/unclear/waste of time.

There are routes around Bath to avoid the charge - as all those in megabucks houses are finding out!

I want to know how charging people will make the air cleaner? Surely it’s better to say (as France and Germany do) that certain non confirming vehicles are not allowed in on certain days.

Call me cynical ….. but we avoid Bath like the plague and certainly don’t pay money to visit it!

Just checked, our van is free in Bath, Birmingham and Portsmouth.

How can it be a "Clean Air Zone" if you can pay to take dirty polluters in?

Similar to how we reduce our carbon emissions by paying China and India to produce it for us.
