"Today, 9 May 2024, the Department for Transport (DfT) and the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) have launched a call for evidence around the existing policies and registration processes for historic, classic and rebuilt vehicles.

The aim is to seek expertise and knowledge about whether these policies need updating to reflect evolving technologies that support the restoration and rebuilding of these vehicles.

DfT and DVLA are very keen to tap into a range of experience, views and research to help identify areas of potential change, whilst ensuring that road safety and accurate vehicle records on the national register remain a key priority.

The call for evidence asks for evidence on a number of topics including:

historic/classic vehicles registration
rebuilt and restored vehicles
kit-built vehicles
vehicles converted to electric propulsion
Q registration numbers
the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
This call for evidence runs until 4 July 2024 and you can respond by visiting the link
