Thanks Mid for a great informed update.
I too am concerned. I have a fleet of five cars and it's only possible to pursue this hobby if the business generates an income as I have to rent commercial property to store them in. I am astonished you only do about 12 jobs a year. I have more than 82 weddings to do this year! Like yourself much of the profit is put back into restoration costs.
I should be happy to get any updates from you and get involved in any lobbying. In Notts I am a member of the Wedding Professionals network, a body of wedding related suppliers who I could also call on for support as a body of people to object.
By all means mail me direct as info is on my profile.
Regards
Peter

You're a member of the Wedding Professionals network yet you call it a hobby? I think you've just shot yourself in the foot.
