New
look for FBHVC marks silver jubilee
The Federation
says it is " dedicated
to represent all types of historic vehicles, so to remind our
audiences of our scope we will always incorporate the supporting
banner shown at the foot of this page. Member clubs who wish
to acknowledge their FBHVC allegiance may use a logo designed
specifically for their vehicle sector, be it motor cycle, car,
buses and coaches, steam powered, commercial, military or agricultural.
It is important to us that our activities are inclusive of these
interests and thus it is appropriate that our new identity signals
this fact."

In
July this year the Federation celebrates 25 successful
years representing the owners of historic vehicles
and the considerable industry and employment which
has grown up around the historic vehicle movement.
It upholds the right of its members to continue
to enjoy their vehicles as they were supposed to
be used, on |
the roads. This right persists to this day in the
UK despite challenges along the way from regulatory
authorities in Westminster and latterly from Brussels.
The Federations says "Over time the challenges
to our rights of access have become more complex
and we have reformed and modernised our approach
to our lobbying activities accordingly. Reflecting
on this and the opportunity provided by the jubilee
we have decided to bring our visual identity right
up into the 21st century. From 1st February we have
a bright, new identity featuring British Racing
Green to emphasise our national heritage and a new
strap line 'Yesterday's Vehicles on Tomorrow's Roads'
stating our primary objective, clearly and reinforced
on all our messaging. Clarity of communication is
essential in all our external dealings, none more
so than with national and specialist press, and
we believe this new look will serve us well in this
endeavour."
The
Federation will relaunch its website in the new
livery and adds there will be many other new features
of the site which will still be accessed at www.fbhvc.co.uk
The MG Car Club is a member of the FBHVC and a Club
member, David Whale, is the current chairman. He
serves the RAC Motorsports Association as a steward
and clerk of course. |
