Something like this was mentioned before and nothing ever happened
I'll only worry when it comes to actually been enforced
But that'll see the end of halfrauds - bye bye alloys and other items

Not to worry then
unless you go to ireland then on holiday in your own car?
Then it could prove an issue? would we get away with it because were under british law for it? or would they pull the fast and furious - your under EU law?

Ireland might be a bit different from most of the EU in not having a lot of vehicle regulations, even in the '80s there were a hell of a lot of people in rural areas that didn't have a driving licence.
This week local politicians in Co. Kerry called for a relaxation of drink driving laws, perhaps to help stimulate the local economy.
On the opposite side of the lassez-faire Irish attitude is the Germanic-strictly- adhering-to-manufacturers'-spec attitude. I think that's why the likes of Alpina, AMG and Brabus have prospered as they are independant (sort of) but really closely allied to the manufacturers.
In this country I don't think we've got a lot to worry about as long as the parts we fit have some sort of official recognition, such as TUV or BSI approval. Having said that, it's virtually impossible to fiddle about yourself nowadays as electronics are sealed, but I suppose you could change an entire piece of kit or re-write an ECU map.
Actually, come to think of it, it's probably easier to get big performance gains now than it ever was.

NO, NO.
NO NO.
I'm afraid they tend to be Republican (Feinian) terrorists. Oh and the other lot aren't far behind. That will be running alongside the prostitution, drug dealing, bank robberies and protection rackets.
Sorry if I missed a few out there, but if any members of the aforementioned groups would like to contact me and point out what I've missed I'd be eternally grateful.
