I know we have covered before what could be in store for us from EU bureaucrats meddling in our hobby..............



At the meeting of the Federation of Manx Historic Vehicle Clubs on Monday this week, there was extensive discussion on proposals being made by Government for 'additional roadworthiness tests on vehicles.'

Details of these proposals, together with a brief on line questionnaire style response form are available at http://www.gov.im/ConsultationDetail.gov?id=352

The questionnaire is very brief and misses many of the points made in the consultative document. You are advised to read the document to assess likely impact on most of the vehicles in our Clubs.

The Federation will be responding directly to the consultation and opposing the proposals. The meeting felt that the arguments presented in the document were very weak or fundamentally flawed.

It is hoped that you will circulate this information within your Club, and as many responses as possible from individuals will be made before the closing date of 1st February.

My apologies!
I should have read the link properly before posting as it only affects IOM registered cars!

I thought it was UK as well!
And there may be a few "Manx Yanks"- but only 2 Camaros here

No worries TC, if anything, the more votes the better. It's something that they eventually try and adjust and bring around to the rest of the UK / EU anyway. What should we encourage our votes to be based towards?

How to post pics: When writing a message, scroll down and use the "attach file" option. Where possible, a photo sharing service can be used such as Flickr, Imgur etc. The image location (usually ending in .jpg) can be copy and pasted between the ][ brackets that appear when you click the 'Img' button (you can find this button at the top of the message box).

How to post youtube vids: Click on the 'youtubeHD' button at the top of the message box and in the middle of the ][ brackets that just appeared, copy and paste everything from the youtube web address that appears after the = sign i.e if this is the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cNqaPSHv0 just copy "K2cNqaPSHv0").

I think that cars over 5 years old should go through the test prior to sale- that is all we need right now
