A useful summary.
I still think mileage should come into it. I do 2000 miles a year in a 2003 mx5 it costs £295 ro the road tax. My neighbour has a 2013 large mercedes and does 20000miles a year. His road tax is a 3rd of mine and i am sure his car pollution is more than created by my mx5. ... Read more

The year quoted in the first two paragraphs is presently wrong. I have just tried (February 2016) to register my 2002 tii as historic (registered 10 March 1975) and been refused. To quote from the reply I got from the DVLA: .... legislation was also introduced to exempt vehicles manufactured prior to 1 Jan 1975 from the payment of VED. This came into force on 1 April 2015. The intention from HM Treasury is to introduce a legislative clause every year so that vehicles manufactured 40 years ago will become exempt from VED.
This means your vehicle may become eligible for the historic tax class from the 1 April 2016.... Read more

My head says Fuzz is absolutely right but my heart says I really don't want to subject my classic to the ignorant MOT inspector again. Only once in the past 25 years has my self maintained car failed the MOT - the indicators were deemed not to be flashing rapidly enough to meet the (modern) standard.
At the last MOT I counted the inspector stall and struggle to restart my engine 13 times, he had no idea of how to drive a car with carburettors. Then he ripped off the roof guttering while getting out by reaching up and pulling on it to lever his fat torso out of the low driving position.
I really don't want to subject my car to this ignorance again if I can help it.. Read more
Perhaps Car Crusader should select his MOT station more carefully. If he went to some back street £25 a throw establishment then he deserves all he gets. There are plenty of classic car friendly MOT stations around. A call/visit to a reputable classic car dealer will recommend a suitable local MOT testing station. I happily part with £45 per annum to have my MGA professionally tested by the Triumph TR6 owning proprietor of my local independent garage.
A Sexy Incident On The 1980 Himalayan Rally
I thought my experiences regarding Philip Young and the late Hywel 'the mac' Thomas a founder member of Port Talbot Motor Club may be of interest to you.
I serviced for Keith Billows and Hywel Thomas in a group four Escort on the 1980 Himalayan rally. The car normally had a BDA engine but because of the lower grade petrol in India a two litre Pinto engine was installed for the event.
Hywel made notes about the special stages traveling in a taxi two weeks before the start.
Another UK competitor was Philip Young driving a Morris Minor previously owned by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
One day the rally paused in a strictly Muslim town where women were modestly dressed.
I accompanied Philip's girlfriend to do some food shopping. She asked me why some men were staring at her. I pretended not to know why but the reason was obvious. She wasn't wearing a bra so her nipples were pushing prominently through her tee shirt and her breasts bounced with each step.
I think she was unselfconscious about her boobs.
Soon afterwards Keith and Hywel retired due to an engine problem. I wanted to carry on and completed the route in the service van of some hard drinking Australian competitors.
Members of the opposition political party were opposed to the event and attacked cars smashing windscreens at several points along the route. The cars went into a sports stadium with police guard for protection where improvised mesh windscreens were made.
Some of the Indian competitors were in antiquated Hindustan Ambassador cars based on UK 1950's Morris Oxfords.
It was a high profile event and the awards were presented at a hotel in Delhi by the prime minister Mrs Gandhi. As she gave Philip Young his 15th place award he kissed her on the face and she looked horrified.
The rally was won by the famous Shakhar Mehta and Lofty Drews in an Opel Ascona 400.
