Our passion for old cars and and old car restoration. Under attack worldwide?

The European Commission that produces laws for the member countries here in Europe are trying to pass legislation preventing the modification of cars. 

This will kill off our hobby as any upgrade on an old car could be classed as a modification.

Now I hear about the campaign just started by Mike Thies against your governments plans to TAX old cars in the USA..

In the UK old cars are exempt from road tax but if your government gets its way then our UK government may well follow suit.

Our hobby is under attack at both sides of the pond.

Opinions please
