Petition Exempt out-of-production vehicles from regulations on replacing certain parts
Amend The Motor Vehicles (Replacement of Catalytic Converters and Pollution Control Devices) Regulations 2009 so that they no longer apply to any vehicle that has ceased production.
More details
This will make it easier to maintain older vehicles in good condition for longer. It should help prevent premature scrapping of serviceable vehicles when the supply of new type approved replacement components is no longer available. The exemption would permit other suitable components to be substituted or the pollution control system modified in such a fashion that the vehicle can still pass the MOT emission test.
