that's 40 years or older aka "Vintage" (and COf's for Private Motorhomes if that's your bag)

QuoteConsultation has opened on reducing the frequency of safety inspections for vintage cars, vintage motorbikes and motorhomes.
The proposal would see WoF checks for vintage and veteran vehicles over 40 years old change from every six months to every 12 months, and see CoF checks for privately owned heavy motorhomes also change by the same time period.

Transport Minister Chris Bishop has said the change will strike the right balance between safety and over-compliance.
Earlier this month, 1News reported the change would impact 128,000 vehicles and 39,000 motorhomes.
In 2014, the law changed so people who owned cars made in 2000 or subsequent years only had to get them warranted once per year. Older cars continued to have to be warranted twice a year
