Thanks Dave,

Interesting set of questions but can see where they were going with it.

Closure date in October so I would like all Forum viewers to take a few minutes to contribute as classic car owners and supporters..

Done

[Chris_R]

I've already done the club's entry.

Done but took a while as had to fill in details for 4 cars and then my modern car qualified as a youngtimer so 5 in total.

Worth doing though as this is valuable information for them to lobby the government with.

For what reasons Shaun and where "are they going with this" ?

Perhaps I can answer Colin's question. This is what the FBHVC have asked:

We are having to make the case for historic vehicles retaining their current access and freedoms on our roads more and more strongly, as we navigate the most challenging period in our history. In order to defend the future of historic vehicles, we need your help by completing this crucial survey.

The Yorkshire Post recently quoted Grant Shapps, Secretary of State for Transport as saying “I’m sorry internal combustion engine fans, I think its days are overall likely to be numbered.”
A local authority, in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, recently debated a motion, which was fortunately defeated, to cancel its historic vehicle rally and parade.

The historic vehicle community, our events, our freedoms to use the roads and even the fuel we use, are increasingly under threat amidst a changing landscape of political and environmental influences.

If we are to defend the use of historic vehicles, then we need to act and act now. The Federation needs your help.

The FBHVC is in the process of carrying out its 2020 National Historic Vehicle Survey, an update to a similar survey undertaken in 2016. If we are to represent the case for historic vehicles in the best possible way, we need to have up-to-date information on how important the movement is to the economy and our heritage, particularly in current COVID-19 circumstances.

The answers you give in this survey, will help shape the future for historic vehicles in Great Britain for the next 5 years.

The FBHVC aims to lobby Government against adverse legislation and restrictions that may affect the future for historic vehicles. But, in order to achieve a positive result, we need reliable data on the significance and size of the historic vehicle movement.
