Yay!

Ahhh yes!! This is excellent news, this has made my day OWL100M wont cost me £135 to put on the road no more!! Thank you for the brill news! Regards everyone, little Ron!

I'll bet the Mumford still doesn't qualify

Has to be before 1st Jan 74.

This does at least show VED exemption is on the mind of the Conservatives so rolling exemption may not be too far away. I expect they are planning to bring the UK onto the same lines as the EU and bring in usage restrictions etc.

I will have to look into mine as it will work on the build date as well so there may be a possibility that, although registered in 1974, it may have been built in 1973. I can live in hope I suppose.

What we will need to do is get the chassis numbers from BMHT for '73 cars. I suspect any registration change by DVLA will need a letter of confirmation from the MMOC/BMHT.

Guys it doesn't come in until April 2014, so don't get too excited yet.

Also we are going to need to find out some new last built in Dec 1973 chassis numbers from BMIHT, that might take 12 months in itself.

Better immediate news is that SORN will be indefinite rather than having to be renewed each year.

Look out for something in the next club magazine.

Thats good news on the Sorn issue. I'm always getting £80 fines but I never pay them lol

you better not be pulling my leg mr Josh!!!!

That will save me £235 by 2014

I thought of you as soon as I heard about it

Have another article if you don't believe me

Definitely correct!

One assumes they will decide if it's going to be rolling (or if they are going to decide if they are going to add a year on a year by year basis) this time next year. I'm hoping so! Mud was registered early Feb. '74 according to the V5 (and down in deepest darkest Cornwall) so I guess there's a slight chance she's a late '73 build. Given the numbers they were built in though, I doubt it...
