Nicholas Stone, a 24 year-old student at Arts University Bournemouth with his families 1998 Mazda Demio at their home in Epsom, Surrey which they are having to sell due to the upcoming ULEZ expansion.
Mr Stone, who notes that the car is older than he is, said his parents bought the car from new and have put over 90,000 miles on the clock.
"Our family would have driven this car into the ground if it wasn't for the Mayor's new ULEZ expansion scheme, but we're having to part with it as a lot of our daily amenities are inside the new boundary. It really is a shame we're having to sell it, the car is older than me after my family bought it for over £10,000 and now we're selling it for less than £500".
