Mod it slightly and stick it on a Q plate Lots of paperwork and shitty insurance deals though

Smart idea SD.

But as Tigs says, just SORN it and you get the best of both worlds, no tax / mot / insurance obligations, but you can still put it back on the road at a later date if you wish.

Tellm me about it, I had a friend who is a farmer who set aside 500 gallons of red with fuel preservative, cost him 39 p a litre, some scrotes nicked it over two nights and it cost him 68 p a litre to replace.
He will give em both barrels if he catches em.

Born free taxed to death, the only farmers making a decent living now are low landers down south.

no, not "Farmers" you mean AGRIBUSINESSES" i think NR? the sort that grub out all the hedges so they can get bigger and bigger combines onto their "prairies"!! ( its all small hill farms around here.)

we have always made a profit ( not a fortune but a living) but this year its looking like we might just break even,lost one hay crop and had to turn it into silage ( not as much profit) and the rapeseed crop is not as good as we hoped due to the weather, tho if the weathers better it might just catch up!!
