It was a moving date based on car age which the torries put in place (25 years)....then labour abolished it and fixed the date to 1/1/1973 (as it came into force on 1/1/1998) shortly after coming to power.

these things were a d.i.y.ers dream, you could sit in the engin bay and work easily, not like the migs layout, i am very wary of trying the mig repairs, these things are easy to fix and sort, wifey is now unsure weather to take the plunge,  >:( >:( >:(.
but another prob [poked up, theres a nice 51 plate 2.2 dti mig for sale around the corner for £1300, leather interior etc, but the granny soon be tax exept. ooooh ffs, now i am torn :'(
