Pre 1960 vehicles

These are exempted by statute .

Post 1960 - rolling exemption date

These need to meet VHI status and need to be legally declared as exempt by the owner.

Post 1960 - rolling exemption date non VHI

Vehicles that do not meet VHI requirements but are still within 8 points system need to be MOT'd ie Non standard engine option or non same Marque engine would have to be MOT'd

Post 1960 -rolling exemption non VHI non 8 points.

These are not entitled to MOT exemption nor are they entitled to Historic Taxation .


Please note .

VHI rules do NOT overide existing 8 points sytem re retaining identity . That is a totally seperate system.
