Readers of our FBHVC Newsletters will know we have been expecting the Department for Transport to consult on the possibility of exempting certain groups of older vehicles from an annual MoT test. The consultation, proposing to exempt all vehicles manufactured prior to 1960, has now been published and can be found at www.dft.gov.uk/consultations/dft-2011-27

The FBHVC are seeking views from historic and classic vehicle owners before responding. In view of the shortage of time, the only practical way of collecting such views is a simple on-line survey which can be accessed here    It should take no more than five minutes to complete.
