Does anybody know how much it would have cost to tax a minor in October 1968.

Thanks

That must have been a huge amount then. No wonder few people could afford to run cars.

Tell me about it

At least you could get a month free, if you wanted to chance it

yes road tax was expensive then, thats why i could only afford every 4 months.
in comparison road tax is cheaper now

And don't forget the 10/6 for the radio licence!

Mind you, petrol was about 3/- per gallon (writing as someone who had 5/- a week pocket money!)

Nah, but it's about the same as my disposable income now...
