I have been down to Le Mans a number of times in my Classics but am not sure what the current rules are post Brexit regarding no MOT on my 1960 Fairthorpe, is it a legal requirement? Looking for an answer from someone who knows.........

I'll be applying for MOT exemption through DVLA, to then sort insurance, I believe these are required before applying for tax anyway? (even though it's historic £0 VED exemption) to then be legal to drive in the UK in the first place? Under 90-days travel in EU would mean vehicle to be compliant with origin country..

I'll be in a 1954 80" Landy V8

If you're road-legal in the UK you're road-legal over here.

You need to be able to produce V5, insurance cert and licence.

Great exactly what i was looking for, it is registered as a Historic vehicle with the DVLA so good to go.
