Any help would be much appreciated.
Recently went on a long weekend trip MTBing with a a couple of mates. We took my mates 2000 VW transporter as we all had bike bags. Parked at Heathrow with Purple Parking at 3am. On return my mate has gotten a LEZ fine of £250. Balls. So, we've realized that lesson.. Now he tells me he has a 2nd fine just come through, for travelling home 👿
Thats £500 to park his van at Heathrow...
I've told him to ring them and explain the situation. Anyone experienced similar? TIA
What's "LEZ" when it's at home?

Emissions zone fine?
Serves him right for driving a VW! 😉
London low emission zone, good luck arguing that one. Expensive mistake but I reckon your best bet is report it stolen!
Edit: don't you get a strike though? If it was his first offence there should be a warning letter - don't know if maybe you could try and get the first one waived?

Low Emission Zone. Heathrow's just in it which is pretty ironic considering the crap that comes out of the planes and taxis...
Ah, right.
Broadly then, you're screwed. You could try ringing TfL and appealing to their better nature, but I'm not sure as they have one.
Situation was, 3 am, and not aware of lez that far out of centre 🙄
Now if we'd known of vw envisions antics beforehand.. 🙂
