If by 'Classic' you mean what they now call 'Historic', it's minimum
40 years starting on 1 January 1979.

You still have to apply for TAX but it's free. I believe you still also get a reminder and have to renew.
It was funny getting TAX for the PEV 30+ years ago. TAX was free and it was exempt the MOT ... caused lots of raised eyebrows in the Post Office queue. ;-)

"...green [cake colouring]."
The [] is "understood" (by most [people]).
Bollocks.
Does a fire engine require an MOT? Just curious.
Were these the environmental nutters or the vegan loons spraying it about?
The former.
Is there much difference?
Really? Perhaps they need to tell the DVLA that.
Just what duty has to be paid or not when importing a car likely doesn't concern many.
Is it actually legal to use any vehicle on the public highway that has blue lights, when said vehicle is not a bona-fide emergency vehicle ?.
Did they remember to pay Khans new diesel congestion charge ?
Also has blue lights, which I didn't think non-kosher emergency vehicles could carry.
It seemed to be emitting quite a lot of black smoke, so does it have a legal 'plate' in addition to road tax.
Any different from any other commercial vehicle ?. Surely needs a separate 'plate' in addition to tax.
Cars (and lorries) are regarded as depreciating assets by HMRC.
This is an important distinction for CGT purposes.
With things like TV prop police cars and so on, badges and blue lights must be covered up, apart from when filming. Given this event was filmed, the courts might have to decide. ;-)
Generally in TV, it's common to pay for a real fire engine and crew. Unless a series about the fire service.
I dunno about today. At one time there were special regs for 'show vehicles' which included travelling fare ones - rather than classics used only for car shows etc.
Love to know how they value them. A wet finger in the wind?
No Blue lights and sirens are removed on decommissioning.
7 litre I believe. So much for the climate emergency.In article <031020191849401644% snipped-for-privacy@greenbee.net, Tim Streater snipped-for-privacy@greenbee.net writes
If so it should be immediately seized by the police

There has been talk of doing away with MOT for classic vehicles but don't know if it has been implemented.
