I wonder if US cars were different? My 1990 C4 was supplied originally in Germany and is Euro 2.
@uli1266@spooky69
No All US and EURO 964 are the same , from an engine point of view.
Porsche France is not flexible and told me after several emails, that mine was theoritically an EURO2, but refuse to do it...The guy is a little bit...blocked
Porsche Germany told me that I need to registered first my ccar in germany and then check for the eligibility....
sunny Monday October 31st near Versailles (FR) New rear spoiler as the previous one was cracked as well as new light turn and center. I put a old fashion license plate which fit the car perfectly. Audette J.W. Speaker lights and new Porsche front turn lights 259362 kms... all gauges have been renovated, with new background
Hi Gents
My Targa will finally leave me soon, beginning of March; it has been reserved recently.
A new chapter will start soon for it, still in France, but rather on the West coast that close to Paris.
Thx
I will raise again Porsche France, as for a Euro-countries, standards should be the same.
Just picking up on this... I'm off to Le Mans 24h again but I understand I need to circumvent Rouen this time (big shame as the Rouen A28 tunnel in 3rd gear full press was an awesome sound!) I've been following up different feedback and so far as I know, or have been told;
- Only some 964's are eligible. Those with a CAT bypass fail the criteria. Others of different years also fail. However, as eluded to already, despite a supposed harmonisation of ULEZ rules across the EU, France (or the French police) is not recognising a EURO2 (or EURO anything) or a classic car exemption that has been approved in other EU countries. Brexit for UK has nailed that coffin lid down already.
- Those cars that are being pulled over by French police face either a telling off and some finger wagging at best, or the full 68 Euro fine at worst.
- More confusing (but then this is France ) is that cities applying Crit’Air requirements can also add additional local or other rules and interpretations suitable to their city.
- From 2024 the intention is that all zones will be camera-monitored and cars will be automatically sent fines in the post.
- For now though I hear that many French owners of classic cars are ignoring the rules. However, you can bet come the week of the Le Mans 24h the police will be out in force again up and down the A28 seizing the opportunity - usual cash fines for speeding but now with the added bonus of a 'polluting' car fine.

Ferry across the Seine for me then, which should make a nice change. France is truly a beautiful place for road trips (North and South) and I love taking short driving breaks there. Crit'Air was always coming, and fair enough I guess, but this doesn't change some of the best driving routes in Europe imo
