Are classic cars still exempt?

pre-1972, yes.
They're mostly as slow as balls, though.

I did think about getting a mk1 Celica and putting a new engine, gearbox etc in it, but I'm pretty sure that the amount of mods I'd want to do would get it a Q plate and thus taken off the classic tax bracket.

Well yes, I know
The insinuation seemed to be the pre'02 cars are cheaper, which isn't really true.

no... I see what you mean
I meant comparatively

I'm torn between wanting a decent turn of speed
and wanting a decent amount of economy.

I am on the horns of a dilemma.
