If you have a truck / lorry that would appear to fall in the MoT exemption, it has to be over 3500kg, gross mass weight, that is unladen weight plus the payload. I used to take a customer's Bedford MW for testing and it fell just under 3500 kg, that is unladen weight plus 15 cwt theoretical load.
The correct form for claiming exemption is V112G, as the vehicle tax reminder will probably state "Goods vehicle test certificate required", and on the back it explains this is the form, the other V112 form is for light vehicles in special circumstances. To quote the relevant paragraph on the V112G; 30. Motor vehicles first used before 1st January 1960, used unladen and not drawing a laden trailer, and trailers manufactured before 1st January 1960 and used unladen. For the purposes of this paragraph any determination as to when a motor vehicle is first used shall be made as provided in regulation 3(3) of the Construction and Use Regulations. Motor vehicles constructed and not merely adapted for the purpose. I have just renewed my QL tax disc for about the 18th year so am well accustomed to the procedure now! Richard
