Re:
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Tribunal administrative de Limoges — Interpretation of Council Directive 1999/37/EC of 29 April 1999 on the registration documents for vehicles (OJ 1999 L 138, p. 57), amended by Commission Directive 2003/127/EC of 23 December 2003 (OJ 2004 L 10, p. 29) — Importation, by a person resident in France, of a vehicle already registered in another Member State — National legislation making the grant of an environmental subsidy subject to presentation of a registration certificate bearing the statement ‘demonstration vehicle’ — Quantitative restrictions — Measures having equivalent effect
Operative part of the judgment
Articles 34 and 36 TFEU preclude legislation of a Member State from requiring, for the award of the subsidy known as the ‘bonus écologique — Grenelle de l’environnement’ to imported demonstration motor vehicles at the time of registration in that Member State, that the first registration document of those vehicles bear the words ‘demonstration vehicle’.
