The DVLA is set to update rules for classic car registrations following a summer review. This comes after criticism from owners about difficulties in registering restored vehicles and errors with Q-prefix plates. The Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs is optimistic about the changes. They are advocating for a separate registration process for historic vehicles and recognition of modern components in restorations. The DVLA is seeking expert input on whether current policies need to adapt to new technologies, including electric conversions. The review aims to clarify and improve the registration process for classic cars.
