Anything pre-78 is now tax & MoT exempt, so the market for old tax exempt logbooks isn't what it once was.

edit: change the word not to now or it made no sense... flumble flingers...

Being a mk I it also should be road tax exempt.

Yep, that's just selling the V5 to enable ringing another Mini.

I wonder is this kind of projects is really worth it at all. I assume that the only real interest is in the V5. But still, I can't imagine the amount of time and money to turn this into something decent. Any thoughts?
