Our classic friendly Govt has rejected the rolling 25 year petition
Therefore the Government’s position remains that further extension of the exemption for classic cars would be inconsistent with its overall policy intent, which is to give rates an environmental focus.
The exemption for cars built prior to 1973 should therefore be viewed as an exceptional concession, and the Government does not believe there to be a sufficiently compelling argument for extending it.

Obviously written by Eco Warriors who don't understand the classic car scene.
Perhaps we should petition them to move it 3 years so at least it includes all P6 cars
