Tax Free Motors

A regular question is about if a vehicle is built in ‘72 or ’73. Not easy to answer especially as vehicles didn’t go down the line in numerical order. Below is a table showing the highest number used before 1st Jan ’73 and the lowest number built after 31st December ‘72
If your chassis number is higher than the highest figure, don’t bother, it isn’t tax-free. If it is lower than the lowest, then it is. If it falls between, it might be.
The Heritage Motoring Centre at Gaydon can provide the proof DVLA require, this table will just tell you if it is worth pursuing.
I cannot vouch for its accuracy, but have no reason to doubt it. It was fairly widely circulated when the tax exemption first froze at 72.

Wonder if we could graft a Freelander body on to a tax exempt Range Rover.

And why would you want to make a perfectly good Rangie into a poofs car?
