DfT Roadworthiness Consultative Document
« on: October 27, 2016, 11:25:48 »
The Department for Transport has put out a consultation document with options for changes titled Vehicles of Historical Interest - Consultation on Exemptions from Annual Roadworthiness Testing. The consultation period closes on 2 Nov 2016 so there is no time to collate  response by seeking members' opinions but individuals may respond directly. The proposal can be found at www.gov.uk/government/consultations/roadworthiness-testing-for-vehicles-of-historic-interest.
   This came to my attention via the Riley Register Newsletter received yesterday 27 Oct 2016.

Thank you for for this, I only saw it last night, and thus too late to read it all properly and send a considered response. How come they didn't send info about this consultation to the registered keepers of vehicle potentially effected?

Because that way, common sense has a chance of prevailing. [:(!]

I have just read the response and found it fair and reasonable. Personally I mot all my old cars once every 2 years anyway and think that a 2 yearly test/check is the way to go.

A car is only original once, but, you can modify it as many times as you like.

My car my rules.
