12 Year Limitations on UK Piston Helicopters

Please can someone explain to me precisely what happens when a piston engine gets to 12 years old in the UK? I've heard that it's no longer allowed for rental/training - but i can't find those rules written, and just want confirmation. Also - if anyone has any experience on what this means in real life, and whether I should consider this as a key criteria when buying a machine.

Thanks,
