Yep, sorry to say you will never get a Mk2 to be tax exempt, unless you live in the Republic of Ireland. There they have rolling exemption, so anything over 30 years old has very low road tax, I think it's 40euros a year. That's what we should have had, then the lovely government capped it at 1972!

There are some tax free Mk2's they aren't exactly legit.
