THE FEDERATION OF British Historic Vehicle Clubs has announced its new president and figurehead: Lord Steel of Aikwood, aka David Steel.
The FBHVC is formed of 540 member clubs and trade supporters and exists to maintain the freedom of its members to use historic vehicles on UK roads. Lord Steel has been a stalwart supporter of this movement for many years and plays an active part in the All Party Parliamentary Historic Vehicles Group.
Said Lord Steel: “I am honoured to be asked to become president of the FBHVC, whose research and advocacy I greatly admire. Nobody can fill the shoes of the late Edward, Lord Montagu, whose achievements at Beaulieu were quite outstanding but I shall do my best to help advance the organisation.”
