Doubtless they will return it if pressed hard enough.

But I bet they've already crushed it.

Why exactly is this a federal law enforcement case, again?

The DHS has become the administration’s go-to brown shirts.

I asked this on the other thread.

Who in their right mind pays 60 grand for a mid 1980s British vehicle?

Did it have rocker panels full of cocaine?

Once your vehicle in New Jersey is 25 years old...

Historic vehicles
General inspections are not required for historic or collector vehicles. To be classified as a “historic vehicle” it must be:

At least 25 years old
Specially registered and display QQ plates

What is the DHS doing enforcing EPA rules? Am I missing something here? When did they become a new form of FBI or other federal police force? I thought they were supposed to defend us from terror threats.

But, but, but, the EPA is just fulfilling its assigned role to be the Gestapo Wing of the Democrat Brotherhood Government!

Why do you think we pay taxes?

Reid’s BLM Police can’t be expected to do all of the punishment to us here on Welfare Plantation America!

Besides, it might make nice wheels for a daughter of one of the High Command’s Officials, possibly whose Initials are BHO, or is it BS?

It is soooooo difficult to figure out with all this transparency, sealed records, and destroyed hard drives.

“She also said her vehicle was just one of 40 that feds seized in various locations that same day for the same reason.”

I thought this was the same car as the other article. Possibly not

There is reason to suspect that VIN on the vehicle in question had been altered. That’s illegal.

There is no such thing as a 1985 Land Rover Defender. That name came into use in 1990.

It would seem that the VIN was changed to one appropriate for 1985 to fool unsuspecting buyers into thinking that the 25-year exemption would apply.

If true, this is a very weird story. Why is DHS involved? Why is the federal government confiscating this vehicle without even testing it? In my state, auto emission compliance is checked every two years when you renew your license tabs, it has nothing to do with the federal government. And if you fail the test, they don’t impound your car, but you are given time to fix the problem. You won’t get your tabs, but they won’t take your car.

What gets me is the placid, almost sonambulistic, manner in which people accept this kind of behavior. I'd be jumping up and down yelling for somebody’s head.

Is the EPA the new Gestapo? The current administrator of the EPA is Gina McCarthy; she is appointed; another unelected Bureaucrat with enormous power and reach.
Employees 15,913 (2013)
Annual budget $7.901 billion (2013)

I wonder what Governor Nikki Haley will do about this violation of the Constitution.
