I have a car that in GB would qualify for historic MOT and tax exemption next year (40 years old) if it were on the mainland. I believe we still haven't implemented this in NI for various reasons (please let me know if I'm wrong!).
Somewhat hypothetically - If I had such a car and lived in England, thus it was exempt, I could bring it over here for a week and drive it say, and surely this wouldn't be 'illegal'. With this in mind, if I was to give the car to a relative in England and change the registered keeper and they were to declare it tax and MOT exempt and get a new V5 back, and then they gave the car back to me over here - where does that leave me legally speaking?
Any thoughts appreciated!
