cub200 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 I've also got a 1959 trials Cub and when the "no MOT for pre 1960's" rule came in on Nov 19th last year I was straight up to the local DVLA office on Nov 20th with my insurance etc in my hot little hand. she asked for my MOT and didn't know about the rule change until she checked it out, she came back with "you are correct sir". She asked why I hadn't got an age related rego number and I told her it was too much trouble, she said, "I can do it for you now" which I gratefully accepted. I was in the DVLA office for 10 minutes and came out with a 12 months tax disc, an age related number and it hadn't cost me a penny, I also had a big smile on my face. Manx 2 day here I come.
