FYI for anyone else looking to change over to a black and silver number plate, the DVLA are making changes...
https://www.fbhvc.co.uk/news/article/ch ... m-01012021

This note is to tell you about important changes being introduced on 1 January 2021 that affect the ability of vehicles registered in the historic tax class to display the old style pre-1973 black and silver number plates.

Following the change in definition of a historic vehicle for vehicle tax exemption purposes in 2015, an issue was identified in the regulatory requirements for the valid display of a black and silver number plate. This resulted in an unintended consequence where any vehicle over 40 years old and registered in the historic tax class would be permitted to display an old style black and silver number plate. This was despite the law previously requiring all vehicles first registered after 1 January 1973 to only display the yellow and white number plates with black characters.

As this was never the intention, we have sought to rectify this through a legal correction which will shortly be implemented. The change seeks to prevent any vehicle constructed after 1 January 1980 from the ability to display the black and silver number plate despite being recorded in the DVLA’s historic tax class. Those vehicles with a construction date prior to 1 January 1980 will continue to be able to legally display black and silver number plates to avoid any undue costs of replacement.

Ohh FFS..... Glad I haven't paid for mine yet as they wouldn't take the actual order until April 2021.

Nice work Mike...Just goes to show nothing is ever simple.

I can’t take credit for it, I saw it posted in one of the classic car groups I’m in on Facebook. I’m just relaying the info here as I know you and others had expressed an interest in changing to black and silver plates once our cars go into the historic tax classification.

I saw this earlier too. It does make me wonder if the historic tax class will get frozen at Jan 1980 as well.... :?

Yeah I'm sure they will :cry: Bastards!
Even once they've got their money back they will decide it's better to continue taxing the tax on the tax.....
