There have been reports in the popular press recently to the effect that modified "historic vehicles" may under the current proposals out for consultation be renumbered with a new Q registration.

What are going to be classed as modified? A car that is apparently very original in appearance may have an modified engine giving a far greater power output than the one fitted when new, but without the brakes being upgraded. Surely this is far more dangerous than a vehicle where there has been a cosmetic alteration which is obvious but in no way affects the car's performance.

Is this being considered in the consultation? Should the register be

I believe this covers vehicles which are applying for registration having just been re-built, not to existing cars which are already registered.

The consultation document is open to comment by everyone - the FBHVC is commenting and I expect the MGCC has had input :

I wouldn't believe all that's printed in the "popular" press. That way lies madness.
