I don't get it. How's a road tax exemption going to help preserve "A number of cars which were built in British factories"? Does nobody care about french cars made before 1973? It's poorly thought out, you have to admit.A number of cars which were built in British factories are becoming few and far between and would like the Government to help preserve these cars by offering and extension on the current exemption date.
If there was a petition to outlaw linking to that e-petitions site on every forum I visit, I'd sign it in a flash.
I'm sure somebody in Downing street has a great laugh at the wacko petitions on that site every morning.

I've signed a few that actually say what I've been saying myself for years - not that our 'democracy' will take a blind bit of notice and actually just take the p**s out of the weirder statements instead...Ross_K wrote:I don't get it.

The years' grace is for all/any car that is older - end of confusion!! God knows what this fella's on about. The fact it's laster 30 years and is being maintain don the road should qualify the car for free tax, after all other 30 year old cars were offered it!! The fact the car is still running shows the greenest credential - longevity of use rather than disposing and using a replacement new one with it's attendant manufacturing materials/energy...
