Low emissions zones to be implemented accross Spain from next year
I thought this might be handy to note for anyone planning a trip for next year onwards: any city with more than 50K residents will be bringing in low emission zones to their city centers, and the existing zones for Madrid and Barcelona are going to be tightened (though by how much is yet to be seen due to court cases over it).
Under the Spanish classification scheme the vehicles affected are likely to be diesels from before 2006 and anything that burns petrol from before 2000 ("unclassified"). "B" class might be affected too, which is 2006-2014 for diesels and 2000-2006 for petrol.
I don't know how this will affect foreign plated vehicles, and the exact rules are going to vary a lot ... to confuse matters there are exceptions too, like my '93 Nissan Serena is classed as a B because it's officially a minibus.
