You should get changed to the Historic vehicle tax. Send it back to dvla and tell them it needs changing

You need to get it changed, or plod will do you.
Had to do it for one of my vans.....needed to go to a DVLA office for checks Hope that doesn't happen to you, so good luck!

you can do it at the post office now. They just scan the logbook or tax reminder and once you've paid the normal plg tax amount the dvla will issue the new v5.

sorry. I didn't realise it was as old as that. yep. get historic tax. Not sure if you can do this at the post office. Where I go, he told me he could do all tax class swaps apart from agri.

thanks just noticed there is a footnote under the vehicle changes section saying that this can only be done when it is taxed, trouble is is that i will be restoring it to sell and wont be taxing it because it has to have insurance on it to tax it, nothing is ever easy

You don't have to do anything then, new owner will need to change tax class.
