Classics and older are usually exempt and will be in future restrictions, but thats leaving a lot of modern classics in the firing line.

Most TVRs, Porsches, morgan, so on and so on. Are they going to be outlawed till they become old enough to be classed as a classic?

Sorry my ramblings don't make a lot of sense, must have been a bit hard of thinking yesterday.

I was thinking about cities like Paris after they banned vehicles registered before the year 2000 in a bid to combat pollution in the city. But classic cars are exempt.

If that sort of thing happens here, we are going to have problems with some very interesting cars. Like you say my "modern classic" is somebody else's "old car" and visa versa. And no-one is going to or could make the decision on who's car fits in what box.


So when do I sell my modern classic and buy something older?

So you don't think they will try to open the city ban to a uk ban?
