Banning Modifications?


Recommended Posts

So i saw on a site (ACE i think it was or something) that apparently the government are putting forward a legislation to keep all cars completely unmodified! this will be done through an MOT type test apparently :(

just wondering if anybody else had heard about this?

Nah never heard of that and i very much doubt it as in an mot you cant remove anything to check so it would just be a case of covering anythin up and they cant do nothing. Plus with imports there is not uk model so they have nothing to compare it to all in all i highly doubt this. Sounds a little Nazi'ish

http://www.pistonhea...p?storyId=26224 is a more level headed view on it

is the actual proposal

which says

Proposal for a

REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

on periodic roadworthiness tests for motor vehicles and their trailers

which is already covered my MOT

Will never happen like someone said look at huge companies that sell modified/tuning parts for cars and how much the government will make out of these businesses, also more modifications means higher premiums meaning more money to the governement. There is no reason to make a law for cars not to be modified. If it passes MOT it's fine

ive heard that but surely thats going to be too hard to enforce ? think of how many modded cars are about down to shitty little cars with a set of "lexus lights" surely thats modified ?

:L They should just ban the badly modified cars
