[ROVERNET - UK] Rover SD1 legal issues

[Gundry, Kenneth]

 I realize 80 years is a bit different from 25, but I had no trouble
importing my 1925 Rover 16/50 from Britain into California and
registering it, except that the DMV lost the papers and took ten months
to issue the proper documents!  It is exempt of all California emission
testing, and I don't think California cares how I use it, although my
insurance allows only 3000 miles a year.

I know in NY state things are fairly okay if your car is older than 25
years. I'm not sure about the fed' emission stuff as my 2000TC is too
old to really have anything in that line on it.

But I think that the 25 year rule also counts for vehicles coming in
from foriegn countries too. But as they say "Don't quote me on that".

Handy if you import from Eurpoe say.....
