"When amendments were made to the automotive industry&amp;#39;s &amp;#39;block exemption&amp;#39; legislation last year, many predicted significant change in the way cars were sold and serviced. With the compliance deadline [October 1] looming however, signs of progress are few and far between.   The deadline for adoption of the new laws governing the motor trade is just a day away, yet it seems that many in the business have failed to take action to comply with them. When the EU imposed reforms to the industry&amp;#39;s &amp;#39;block exemption&amp;#39; regulations, concerning the way new vehicles were sold and serviced, a one-year notice period was introduced to give businesses time to make the necessary changes."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
