As you know, the Federation has argued that the DVLA process for enabling declaration of a vehicle as not being significantly changed at the time of re-licensing only was one which could put drivers at risk of bureaucratic misunderstanding and leave them at risk from ill-briefed policemen.

Well, we became aware that a real example had arisen and that the driver of a historic vehicle had received a Notice of Prosecution. The Federation urgently Environmental Issues sought clarification of the position form the Department for Transport. We are glad to confirm that they responded promptly local.

The reason for this DVLA were refusing to accept original Polish registration being that DVLA has reciprocal arrangements with their documents in support of first registration applications. counterparts in other countries for the return of their documents. However, we have recently learned that the DVLA have assured us that this is not policy. Originals of situation is in fact a little more complex. Polish documents continue to be acceptable but as Poland is one of the countries with a reciprocal agreement they It is true that reciprocal arrangements do exist but not cannot be returned to the applicant. with all countries, or, indeed, in one instance, not with all of a particular country.

With the many reports in the press on Clean Air Zones and Ultra Low Emission Zones, many towns and Councils are either trying to ban our historic vehicles or charge us for visiting or driving through their districts. Well, albeit quite refreshing the City of Gloucester are welcoming historic vehicles to visit and attend an event they have planned for 24 August 2019.

The Classic and Retro Festival proves to be a unique event celebrating living history and particularly transport throughout the ages. For this event Gloucester’s inner City is closed to ordinary traffic and a welcomes as many different marques of Classic and Historic vehicles possible. The event which is sponsored by Pro Global, is an annual event and features over 200 classic vehicles (to include Aston Martin, Jensen, Bentley, Triumph, Morris and Alvis to name just a few), which fill the historic streets of Gloucester City Centre. There will also be time-honoured cars from the turn of the last century through to the War Years, the Roaring Twenties, the gleaming chrome of the fifties, the iconic designs of the Swinging Sixties and classic sports cars from the eighties. For music and dance enthusiasts, you can take a visit to the stage in King’s Square whereby vintage entertainment and dancing will take place.

Within the City centre there are four Historic Gate Streets and each will be themed and will represent different eras of time 1900-1949, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s to modern day times.

Each Street will also accommodate re-enactors, businesses, shops, restaurants, and celebrities who will all play their part with good Gloucester food, fashion and music and dancing providing extra entertainment, enjoyment and fun for all. Monies raised will also support their chosen charities.

The vehicles may be driven right into the heart of the City and park free of charge for the event, however you MUST be in possession of an authorised application. There are special prizes for the best cars in each Street and a competition also for those that dress for the occasion.

If you would like some more information or to obtain an application for this award winning event, please contact Councillor Colin Organ the creator & organiser of the Festival via e mail on [email protected] or [email protected] Goes Retro! 12 FBHVCnews Issue 1, 2019Gloucester Issue 1, 2019 FBHVCnews 13 GoesGoes Retro!
