Re: Re-taxing an MOT-exempt vehicle
I'm glad you said strengthening the argument; because a valid MOT certificate is of course no proof whatsoever that the bike is roadworthy, and there is case history on this. It merely confirms that at the point in time at which it was inspected, it met the criteria for the test.
Hi John.
I thought you need to have the Historic classification before being MOT and Tax exempt.. and being able to use the black and silver number plate.
It was a bit of hassle getting it, in my case, but probably worthwhile. I have also been advised to get MOTs to strengthen the argument that the bike is roadworthy, in case an argument with insurers is necessary at some point.
