Re: Historic MOT criteria
From memory I filled in the V10 and sent the paperwork to the DVLA. It didn't take long for it to be processed, I was quite surprised how efficient they were.

Re: Historic MOT criteria
I had to fill in V10 form. It's because your vehicles tax class class is changing.

Re: Historic MOT criteria
You'll be tax free from 01/04/24.... I did the historic tax at the PO for the Moto Gucci. The very nice man sent the V5 off for me after asking I wanted 6 or 12 months tax for £0.00 :) .
