Please help me keep my TD5 Defender on the road but this will be relevant to a lot of older cars!! ‼️IMPORTANT‼️ *Please Share.*
So the government is going to try and effectively remove old vehicles from the road.
They've created a sneaky consultation on this huge change with an end date of only the 6th of September.
They want to have a yearly emissions check on every car and motorcycle on the road AS WELL as your mot.
If you pass the mot but then go to your emissions check, if the vehicle doesn't emit exactly the same emissions as when it was built the car will be banned from any use on the road even if it passed its mot emissions.
‼️ This will effectively destroy cars for those of us who love older cars, as well as those who simply can’t afford a newer car. Also car tuning and modifications will be forced to stop you been able to drive your car.‼️
This is targeting all vehicle, cars, motorbikes, trikes, kit cars etc.
So far they are just targeting cars after 2001 but they want to use it on every vehicle on the road targeting mot & tax exempt (historic) vehicles.
They've purposely not given this consultation much time, so please go to the bottom of this page, click this link: smartsurvey.co.uk/s/x-QHYJB7… and click *DISAGREE* and tell them you do not want any of this from the government and share the consultation for others to do the same.
Only way to stop this would be to get the results of this consultation to be a resounding NO (DISAGREE)!

We don't want this in rural East Yorkshire.
🚗 Labour’s latest madness? They want to REPEAT their bonkers policy in Wales🏴 for blanket 20mph speed limits on rural roads across England 🏴 🚗
It’s another front in their war on motorists & their war on rural Britain
Blanket limits won’t make the roads safer. They’ll make journeys slower, frustrate drivers and ignore the reality of rural life
We need speed limits based on evidence and common sense. Not ideological anti-car policies cooked up by Labour’s anti-motorist apparatchiks 🌳🇬🇧
Complete & utter 🔔end. If you dislike the UK that much hand back your knighthood
Replying to @F1

How can voters know what Labour stands for, when they have no clue themselves?!
They promised to end Tory chaos. But all we’ve had is 18 months of Labour chaos!
