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!
Pay for it, it's only £200.

I don't trust the government giving out free road licensing. The next thing they will do is restrict us, free road licence cars only to be used at the weekends. Or similar restrictions.
