All service books are stamped and warranties remain valid. This is according to EU law which stated that aftermarket specialists can carry out services to all vehicles and ensure manufacturer warranties remain. This is called ‘Block exemption’. Please read below for further information on this.

EU Motor Vehicle Block Exemption Regulation (EU) 461/2010 (MVBER)

The motor vehicle sector benefits from its own block exemption or ‘safe harbour’ from competition rules for agreements for the distribution and servicing of motor vehicles in the EU where it can be shown that there are efficiency benefits for business and consumers alike.

A revised MVBER ((EU) 461/2010) and accompanying guidelines came into force on 1 June 2010 and apply to repair and maintenance services only. The MVBER is valid until 2023 though the guidelines can be reviewed at any time by the European Commission.

Following public consultation, the European Commission considered that a specific block exemption is no longer warranted for the sale of new cars and commercial vehicles. The Commission has therefore provided for a three year transition period until 2013 during which the previous MVBER ((EC) 1400/2002) will continue to apply. After this transitional period, the general block exemption on vertical distribution agreements ((EU) 330/2010) only will apply to the sale of new cars and commercial vehicles.
An overview of the competition rules relating to agreements between vehicle manufacturers and their authorised dealers, repairers and spare parts distributors for the distribution and servicing of motor vehicles in the EU can be found at the following link:

European Commission-Competition-Motor vehicles

These rules aim, in particular, to increase competition in the market for repair and maintenance by improving access for the independent repair and servicing sector to the technical information needed for repairs and by making it easier to use alternative spare parts.

The MVBER is directly enforced in the UK by the Office of Fair Trading, (OFT) who has responsibility for the enforcement of competition rules in the UK. The OFT can be approached for advice on any competition related complaint and can advise on any cross border issues.
