No kilometer limit for classic cars - if there is, then at least 5000 km per year
Countries such as Switzerland have a mileage limit of 3000 km per year for vehicles with veteran status (equivalent to the H license plate). Germany tends to restrict the purpose of the H license plate, but does not limit the mileage.
However, when asked this week whether it would be right to limit the annual mileage of historic cars by means of registration regulations, 44 percent of respondents - the largest proportion - answered that a limit was unnecessary or undesirable.
However, if you add up the supporters of a limit, you end up with 52% who can imagine a limit. A total of 42%, however, demand a minimum distance of 5000 kilometers that can be driven per year, while a further 10% agree with the regulation as it is currently applied in Switzerland.
Nobody could imagine a lower limit, e.g. 2000 km (0%), and 3% of the survey participants did not find any of the answers convincing.
Apparently, more than half of Zwischengas readers value the protection and preservation of the rolling cultural heritage more highly than the personal freedom of the individual to do as they please with the old car, which enjoys special registration rights (H registration, veteran status), and to use it in everyday life for any number of kilometers per year.
And apparently the Swiss model is basically acceptable to these limit advocates, only the maximum mileage should be increased.
For the sake of completeness, here is the graphical evaluation:

And of course we have already asked the next question. This time it's about whether classic car owners have actually made money with their vehicles over the last few decades , as suggested by the constantly rising market prices.
