4 ,hat - a #ara$el %reebank? English I do not think it is necessary for classic cars to be part of the dire#ive. I am not looking for such rigidly high recycling quotas when it comes to special"purpose vehicles either. I want special"purpose vehicles such as ambulances to have high recovery quotas. This is my main concern in this matter. German Ich halte es nicht für notwendig, daß Oldtimer Beandteil dieser Richtlinie sind. Auch bei Sonderfahrzeugen rebe ich nicht so unbedingt hohe Recyclingquoten an. Ich habe den Wunsch, daß Sonderfahrzeuge wie Krankenwagen hohe Rettungsquoten haben. Das ist meine Hauptsorge in diesem Bereich. 3/ 30
