Havent you seen all the hoo-hah in the Classic & Hot Rod press ?


Check out this months issue of Classic Ford mag... there is a pre-printed letter in the back for you to sign and send to DVLA's Cheif Exec...



If you ignore this.... it wont go away !

What a load of wank. For a start IF it come in are they going to make us put our cars back to standard? Think of the amount of people it would effect job wise too.

I really can't see this happening, there would be riots if they tried to enforce it.

Hello everyone,as I live in the Republic I'll tell you what I've heard on all this.Its basically aimed at boyracers with tinted windows and very loud exhausts.It has nothing to do with fitting Koni's,changing cams,chipping ECU'S or upgrading to youre favourite AP brakes etc!!!!So basically it wont affect the more performance orientated car owner's.The NCT tester's (NCT = MOT to you Brits,only its stricter!) would'nt know performance shocks from Aftershock!!!!So I dont think its anything to worry about,regards Micky

But many race/track cars look pretty lairy.

Most MOT testers cant tell a boyracered up Corsa from the Reyland Escort FFS

Itd create a land of street sleepers, interesting, but bit boring in some respects.
