Of interest to us all! Please read! Tax Exemption.
This was a 25 year exemption when introduce some years back,when the new Labour government was elected with Tony Blair they put a cap on it and the roll on was ended leaving it at pre January 73.Scrap the rund fund Licence and put it on the fuel (already 75% tax) and V.A.T. but thats how it is here I,am afraid.We are taxed to death literally!paul_c said

Be careful what you wish for. One of the suggestions put forwards was 'free' classic car road tax, but with the restriction that you can only use it to travel to-from official shows and events.
So logically, the thing to do would be ditch the pre 1973 historic exemption from paying tax, or impose restrictions on the use of the cars. Because simply defining a year which a car becomes 'classic' and is entitled to free tax, is unfair in principle. Making that year a bit sooner, or allowing it to roll forwards, isn't that much less unfair.

Road pricing makes sense - the main factor which makes motoring inefficient is congestion, so they could price road usage according to time of day/date, as well as miles covered, whether its rural/urban, etc etc. But with that many people objecting, it was ditched and unlikely ever to be resurrected.
