Kolja Barghoorn wrote that the EU systematically complicates the trade in used cars and spare parts. Anyone buying a car to dismantle it for parts and resell them will automatically be treated as a supplier of an old vehicle and will have to meet stricter requirements in the future. While there is no outright ban, he believes that the regulations make the trade uneconomical. Since many manufacturers do not offer spare parts for older cars, the spare parts trade will gradually collapse as a result. Even stricter regulations are set to apply to commercial suppliers from 2029. Barghoorn also accused the EU of wanting to push consumers towards purchasing new hybrid cars with 25 assistance systems in this way. He accompanied his remark that the EU is important for "free trade" with laughing emojis. #EU #Gebrauchtwagen #Ersatzteile (translated)
