On a related subject (sort of), if the UK Gov't restricts the sale of decommissioned armoured vehicles to UK residents and will not approve export permits. How do they regulate the vehicles that may go across to the continent for a D Day landing reinactment or military vehicle show or similar?

What's to prevent someone selling a vehicle when it's in France, Holland or Belgium?

Sorry for my interruption!

Diana

Have you heard of an OGEL? "Open General Export Licence" It's a load of bollocks but I have signed up and got my licence number. You are supposed to keep a log of any overseas movements. Ron
