Hi Matt,
Yes. I have a two owner 1959 109" petrol that has done under 50,000 miles, less than 200 miles since last MOT. Unfortunately, the last MOT was 40 years ago.
I have cobbled it together onto a new chassis. She is insured under normal fully comp insurance, VED exempt, and MOT exempt. I taxed it prior to moving house, drivable, but it wasn't quite ready in time, so she came to Kettering from South Wales on a trailer. Since then, DVLA wrote to say they cannot change the tax class until it is taxed ... Er .... I have the disc. ???
At present, I'm too busy sorting out the new house to play with it. The 306 is causing enough problems, but I can't complain, I treat my cars the same as I treat my women .... constant neglect, but occasionally I abuse them. I joke ... my wife got the "best prezzy ever" for her 70th. Silverstone, three laps in an Aston Martin, three laps in a Ferrari. But first she needed a driving lesson ... how do you change gear? (paddle) ... then straight into the "traffic" and up to 120. The ploy only half worked, she no longer wants an Aston, as she found it cumbersom. When watching the Silverstone Grand Prix, they mentioned the track conditions. "Tell me about it!" she said. This is the girl who passed the Severn toll booth with all four wheels locked (TVR Vixen) had to reverse back to pay. More recently she asdked Plod if he had any form of identification? He had clocked her at 104 on the M4. "Don't let me catch you doing it again!" Ahem .. she was once the DVLA rep at monthly ACPO meetings.
Sorry, I rabbitting on.
