One-off Exemption for Motorcycles Manufactured between 1993 and 2003 under Classic Vehicles Scheme

Mr Ong Teng Koon asked the Minister for Transport whether the Ministry will consider allowing motorcycles manufactured between 1993 and 2003 to be given a one-off exemption to register under the classic vehicles scheme.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan: The Classic Vehicle Scheme (CVS) allows individuals to own cars and motorcycles which are of heritage value to Singapore.To qualify, the vehicle must be at least 35 years old from its original registration date. Vehicles registered under the CVS can only be used on the roads for up to 45 days a year. Motorcycles registered between 1993 and 2003 are currently 15 to 25 years old, which is way below the minimum requirement of 35 years for the CVS. Hence, we have no plans to grant any exemption for them to be registered under the CVS.
