minivin Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Just to bring this to the top and have a fresh topic, could all those who are interested in the updating of the VED "Historic Vehicle" taxation band please visit this link and sign the petition: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/ClassicRoadTax/ The proposal is to bring the tax band forward by ten years to 1982, do it now B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 That would bring the 109 into exempt status but leave the RR 5 years outside, oh well one out of two ain't bad do the govt actually take any notice of that site at all or is it just Tony Blair's version of a prayer wall?

Jon White Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Afraid you're onto a looser with that one boys - its been floating around for months! They've previously categorically said that it wont change. Partly due to the green lot (doesnt look terribly good to them giving ANYTHING to the motorist) but mainly due to the fact that so many old cars miraculously came out of the woodwork the last time they did!

ltwt1981 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Somewhere in the back of my mind is the thought that this was an EU ruling. May be better to go that route as a lever on the government. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missingsid Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Don't know about the EU rulling the last EU rulling I heard about old cars was an attempt to ban all cars over 15 years old unless part of a museum collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellow Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Don't know about the EU rulling the last EU rulling I heard about old cars was an attempt to ban all cars over 15 years old unless part of a museum collection! Time for all of us to start our own mobile museum then... The state some Land Rovers are in, they can be the local equivalent of the Museum of Natural History... Hat, Coat, Museum Ticket Door...
