EU plans to ban vehicles > ten years old from the road!
Welshbreed:
If you visit the website you will see that, as I have mentioned
previously, our cars are under threat from the EU and there are moves
in various parts of the UK to ban cars more than ten or fifteen years
old from being on the road.
Explanation attached to the petition is:-
"Several EU proposals across the years are dangerous to the classic car
movement. One that has been under consideration is to ban the use of
cars older than 10 years. Similarly, Edinburgh City Council is
considering the banning of cars over 15 years old from the town centre.
These, and similar, proposals directly threaten the classic car
movement, and encourage the manufacture of new cars, with the attendent
environmental issues of sourcing raw materials, manufacturing,
distriuting and scrapping the spiralling supply of new vehicles."
Let's try and nip this in the bud quickly.

Welshbreed:
even the greenies should be against this, as it would mean thousands of cars suddenly being scrapped and thousands more being made of new materials which would cause tonnes of Co2 etc etc
