I haven’t had time to confirm, but sad if true and is passed, destruction of history and personal property….
Just read a post about MAG withdrawing from FEMA because of their 'policy' to push electric bikes exclusively. In a joint release with the FIA, FEMA made no mention of a future for ICE or classic bikes. A stitch up. Andy
This isn't about classic vehicles as such, more about average older cars, which they already have the ability to attack via MOT (or equivalent) testing. At present 40 years get the vehicle an exemption which offers some protection. I suspect the money invested in historic vehicles will continue to offer some level of consideration.

I’ve read/ watched conflicting reports on this but if they want to they will and I wouldn’t be surprised if the historical vehicle mot exemption is removed eventually as well. Once we are all walking around our 15 minute cities they will probably tax oxygen too.
Even the most basic research shows this to be BS. He mentions "fit for 55" but got that completely wrong. Fit for 55 aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by at least 55 percent by 2030. There is already a get around on the ban of new IC powered engines after 2035 agreed. https://www.fleeteurope.com/en/new-...CO2 target&t[1]=ABB&t[2]=Fuel&t[3]=OEM&curl=1 I'm not losing sleep just yet. I'm also going to be 82 years of age in 2050 so I will probably be dead.
About time too. Nasty, noisy, smelly motorbikes. You should all get a nice little (electric) car instead.
Another ill informed fellow who likely suffers from severe tennis elbow. But just consider for a moment, Even if it were true, an EU law would have no effect in the UK anyway...
I still find it amazing you can say any amount of lies on the internet to suit yourself without any comeback at all. Yet do it in print or in public and you are liable to being sued for defamation.
I saw part of one of those guys other videos a few weeks ago. Utter balls. So would pay attention to anything said even if it was midnight and he said it was dark..
Sorry mate but this whole 15 mins cities thing came from a deliberate misunderstanding of one bloke's inoffensive bus flow improvement proposals in Oxford (IIRC).
We’re outside looking in, and the EU are inside looking out, laughing their tits off at the calamity that is Brexit.
