Even if technically within the law, the police may wonder what you want to hide!!!

Personally, I would universally ban all dark tints as you lose visibility and so do the following vehicles trying to see brake lights through the car, for example.  Bikes, motorbikes etc become invisible where you could look THROUGH a clear glazed car etc etc

Makes the car dingy inside too.  Horrid, horrid, HORRID  ;D

Rear side windows and rear windscreen can be limo black. Only front windscreen and front sides fall within the legal requirements.
The UK Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) Regulations 1986 Act details the legality of window tinting in the UK - and as amended specifies the minimum levels of light that must pass through the windscreen and front side windows.

For a legal window tint in the UK the specifications are:
a) Motor Vehicles first used on or after 1 April 1985
b) The light transmitted through the windscreen must be at least 75%.
c) The front side windows (to either side of the drivers’ head) must allow at least 70% of light to be transmitted through them.
