land rover 110 on red for forester use limited miles

[mendiplogs]

HI ALL im looking to run a 110 on red for the woods and limited road use can this been easy with price of road dev at £1.40 per lt thanks all jon

[Paul Jenks]

Legality aside, I wouldn't have thought the cost saving was worth the paperwork. White diesel isn't really £1.40/l if your VAT registered. (Of course it depends on how many litres you intend to use)

I'd speak to HMRC and VOSA to get clarity and then make a decision.

HI PAUL there is that mate but theres farmers around run old 4x4 on it as it free road tax and im told you do not need mot to but i do not think thats good owell thanks jon

I believe the brother mentioned recently that a no of farmers have started using this provision, to run older non MOT'able Toyotas (especially)

On red, no MOT, no expensive RFL either I presume?

But strictly limited miles per annum? / miles per journey? (possibly as little as 6?) or miles distance from base.

So the paperwork canny be that bad.

Lots of farmers do it. Register as agricultural vehicle (free tax) no MOT, do need insurance and limited to 1.5km on road only from base AFAIK.

Hi Jon

I would google it mate, or better go and talk to a farmer that does contract work. Round here the contracting farmers sometimes do 50 miles a day

you could either register it agri or limited use, but as has been said limited use really is limited, 1 km per day between land you own,not worth the bother imo

From memory you have to change it to agricultural machine on the taxation class, which I think to do you have to prove to vosa that it has been modified to use it for agriculture, but don't quote me on that
