Thanks for any help. Regards Phil

It has to have been built before 1973 to be exempt from road tax -

correct answer, so many people think over 25 years old is exempt.

"so many people think over 25 years old is exempt"

This is because prior to the 1998 Budget which froze the date at 1973 there had existed a rolling 25 year exemption for Historic Vehicle Status.
