Tax Mot .?

[timmo]

So the bike is 1976 model. So what happens about Mot this year and then do I need to apply for historic non tax or will it all marry up ?

If not already done, SORN the bike so it isn't taxed

Fill it out stating option "r"

Take with your V5 to the post office and tell them you want to tax it as a historic vehicle

They will take the V5 off you and send it off. You will eventually get a new V5 with the bike registered as a historic vehicle.

They only want sight of the MOT exemption document and will give it you back.

You can ride your bike straight away.

Job done. I have done four of my bikes now with no hassle.

No. Don't wait for a tax reminder. Sorn the bike and go to the post office to retax it straight away. You get a refund of what's left of the tax. You should have done this in April!
