Historic Vehicle rolling 40 year exemption..
florence:
Very pleased to discover that my bike now qualifies. I need to renew the MOT then I can apply for a refund.
Just getting a puncture repaired and thinking about starting up after a winter rest. Nervous.

No need to be nervous about it starting as long as you have fresh fuel in it:))

This is the link to the document describing the rolling 40 year exemption for anyone interested:

I went through the process with my 400/4 earlier this year. For reasons unknown it wasn't registered until 1981, year of manufacture
(not on the V5C but shown on a GOV.UK Vehicle Enquiry, https://www.vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk/) was also shown as 1981. I got a
Dating Letter from VJMC showing year of manufacture as 1977, DVLA took about 5 weeks to send me a new V5C with a new age-related
registration number.
Not sure how you can get a refund, only way I can see would be to SORN the bike (which I think would qualify you for a refund) then re-tax.

Just checked with DVLA website, mine is now taxed for £00.00 although I don't have my V5 back yet (from 1st April)
