CLASSIC CAR OWNERS BEWARE!
« on: 09 May 2005, 20:39 »
A letter sent to the evening leader tonight!

A third term in power for new labour appears to be bad news for classic car owners or people who own older cars.
measures put on hold until after the election include:
A proposal that people should not be able to work on there own cars but to have the work carried out by an appoved garage. killing restoration stone dead.
only vehicle manufactuers to supply parts and spares making it impossible to obtain parts.
that every vehicle even if it is a box of bits should be subject to a possesion tax.
local athorities to have powers to seize vehicles parked on private land.
the use of vehicals more than 20 yrs old subject to approval of intended trip and route by local athoritities who will charge a fee.
vehicles of a certain age to be compulsory scrapped!
Legislation like this is a servere erosion of civil liberties intended purley to provide bureaucratas with a raison d'etre

if you feel strongly about this please write to DAVID HANSON
HOUSE OF COMMONS, LONDON, SW1A 0AA
HANSOND@parliament.uk

if that gets passed i can see classic car owners taking to the streets in rage. For starters think of the economic problems, all the money lost by the classic car magazeens, people who organise the car shows, companies who sell replacement parts etc. Its a f**king discrace. I didnt vote them back in, So i hope whoever did feels much better now :@
