it will never be mot exempt.oldest car ive tested was 1905 and that wasnt exempt either... there is a road tax exemption on grounds of age/historic vehicle that was on a rolling 25 year basis but they stopped that with a date of about pre 1973+ - a year or so(not sure of exact date)if you want to be tax/mot exempt then buy a milk float!even exempt vehicles have to be legal/roadworthy etc

Hi all,
as this is my first post and as i'm also new to the UK regulations, what are the regulations regarding MOT exempt for Cat B vehicles - standard cars?
I own a porsche 944/1982 and it's more than 25 years old! can i apply for an MOT exempt? or there is nothing called MOT exempt for cars? I found some information on articulated and heavy vehicles but not sure of cars.
thanks in advance
