ref: Limited use vehicles tax:

 

You can tax your vehicle in the 'limited use' tax class if it’s used solely for purposes relating to agriculture, horticulture or forestry and:

 

~ it’s used on public roads only in passing between different areas of land occupied by the same person

~ the distance it travels on public roads in passing between any two such areas does not exceed 1.5 km

 

....1.5km (less than a mile) doesn't exactly help get horticulture & woodland products to the local market does it!! Who comes up with this stuff?? Maybe they dont want true local produce to thrive? Maybe Tesco, etc is local enough for DVLA and ukGOV?

 

It isn't supposed to, its so the old farmer can get his machine from one field to the next
