This is going to cost tens of thousands of jobs EU wide!!
The worst thing that ever happened to the UK was to get involved with the EU!!

forget about the silverstone stickers what about site stickers :ninja:

Yeah, I hope the site owners are only selling type approved stickers:tease:

So they must be a condition they were manufactured in, so we make the cars worse? Don't they see enthusiasts improve their cars, way better then when they were made?

Well I'll be buying an HS or HSR Chevette then!

Its already law in New Zealand and Aus even lowering has to be approved over there people will have to trailer thre cars to shows

Kinda stole my point there sir :hmm:

I suggest anyone worried by this should download a copy of the department of transport questionaire from

and return it to them.

I would also suggest that we should all contact our MP and MEP objecting to the proposal on the grounds that

1) the level of testing generally falls below our current MOT
2) the purpose of the act seems to be to create a uniform level across Europe for the trading of second hand vehicles - however only UK, Eire, Cyprus and Malta drive on the left and all are islands - so there is limited trade with the rest of main land europe.
3) again it is worth highlighting the effect on the after market and that most who modify actually have safer cars than those who don't bother with MOT, tax or insurance (or licences).

I'm sure there is more but it is late - I'll do more research over the next few days.

I've emailed them my 2p worth for all the good it's likely to do, but if everyone takes the time give opinions they will be made aware of the strength of feeling about these proposals.

Contact you MP and MEP
