  • Taxed the Lambretta online yesterday, it's exempt but still gotta be done. Had the option to change it to MOT exempt too now its over 40 years old (it's actually 58 years old from frame serial number, 53 years old from being incorrectly re-registered on an age related plate when it was imported, so not sure why it hasn't been exempt before now)

    Even so, boost! No more MOT nonsense from people who don't know about vintage machines

    How does that affect your insurance premiums? I think that I read that some insurers don’t like exempt bikes, that they prefer you still get the MOT regardless. Something like, you can prove it’s still roadworthy and so they can insure it without loads of caveats and endorsements?

  • I wasn't able to do that online for mine. It was a ballache just understanding what they wanted, I assumed they were just making it difficult to put people off.

  • Had this with older cars too, not them failing it for reasons only known to them, but just general mucking about with stuff you would rather they didn't.
