Cut of date for tax exempt is 31st Jan 1973.
I had a mini that was listed on the log book as date of registration 10th March 1973.

I contacted the DVLA and they told me if I could prove the car was manufactured before this date.
Which i managed to do through countless phone calls and faxes

Turned out the car was manufactured in Dec 1972

So was worth the hassle
