(b) the registration is the first registration of the vehicle after its restoration; and
(c) upon registration the vehicle is allocated number-plates that carry the words ‘veteran car', ‘vintage car' or ‘historic car'.
“(2) Where—
(a) within the period of 3 years immediately following a registration that is exempt from tax under subsection (1) the relevant vehicle is again registered under the Motor Traffic Act;
(b) the vehicle is owned by the person who owned it at the time of the registration referred to in subsection (1); and
