URGENT – DVLA consultation on historic vehicle registration processes, how to answer it and ensure your voice makes a difference

The SAHB has received an urgent call-to-action from the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs Ltd. It has been sent by Mel Holley, Secretary, Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs Ltd, PO Box 1563, Peterborough, PE1 9AU, Tel: 01708 223111, Email: secretary@fbhvc.co.ukRegistered in England, Company No. 3842316. VAT Reg. No. 636 7886 83

Please read the attached Press Release – and importantly the link https://evidence.fbhvc.co.uk/  with members of motoring clubs and wider friends of motoring history (such as through social media).

FBHVC DVLA consult position 1

You may be aware of the 9 May Government announcement of a wide-ranging consultation about the registration of historic vehicles https://www.fbhvc.co.uk/news/article/dft-and-dvla-launch-call-for-evidence-around-registering-historic-classic-and-rebuilt-vehicles . 

In total, the consultation asks 50 questions in 12 subject headings. It covers all historic vehicles – not solely cars – of all types, and are all represented within the Federation.

The FBHVC is seeking feedback from ALL interested parties, not just clubs and societies.

This will help shape the Federation’s formal response to the consultation, on a topic of great importance that affects the entire movement.

The consultation offers the opportunity to shape the creation and evolution of policies to preserve our ability to restore, register, and use historic vehicles efficiently and fairly for tomorrow’s roads. 

The more people who respond to the FBHVC the better, as this will ensure that our collective voices will carry considerable weight.

It’s taken a very long time – and a huge amount of extremely hard work by the FBHVC’s dedicated team – to get to this position, as they have battled on your behalf.

Now, it’s over to you!
