My car was first registered 07/02/1985. so I went to the post office in York to get it registered as Historic (40yrs old) I had all the required documents ie V5C log book,V112 mot exempt, current MOT cert. at first the assistant said I would have to. pay road tax for the year and claim it back, when I pointed out to her that it was already taxed and I am not paying twice she scuttled into the back office for advice came back and said I won't have to pay twice. then she continued to tap away at the computer which then said no, away she went to the back office and it turns out I have to wait till April 1st to register as Historic.. By now I had lost the will to live so it was straight to the Blue Bell for a few sleeves.
