Restore a rolling 30 year-old exemption to VED, for classic vehicles
Responsible department: Her Majesty's Treasury

Re-introduce a 30 year rolling vehicle excise duty exemption scheme, for classic vehicles. For too long now the tax exemption of classic cars has been frozen, to only apply to those manufactured before 1973. History did not simply stop in 1972. These are not cars which are driven everyday but rather on sunny weekends, to attend enthusiast shows etc.. It is vitally important that we help to preserve this important part of British motoring history.

no,not a thing .so I don't know what happened.

[kettle kid]

I don't think we will hear anything, as they hope we go away, or forget the outcome of the whole thing. Besides, I think they need the money.... If they get rid of it, it would make my 2013 now. And I wouldn't have to sorn everything.... Let's see what rubbish they come up with?

It was a 25 year old 'rolling' exemption started by the (then) Conservative government many years ago and Labours' Winky McBrown stopped it in the 1998 budget. That's why it's vehicles built (not registered before 1st January are VED exempt.
This may or may not be re-introduced as this government have more important stuff to sort out - like homosexual marriages etc.
