question about car tax.

[elliot999]

The car I might buy is declared off the road, and therefore has no tax.

If I drove this on the road, I would be breaking the law, but how do the police tell which cars have no tax?

Do they have to read the tax disc, or does it get picked up on the computer?

gets picked up on their PNC machine. Also if you crash the car or maybe hurt someone your looking at time in the gay den. Juvvy!

ok thanks, it's gonna be risky getting it home haha. How long does it take for new tax to come through?

[evans1089]

post office job? or tax online, so it comes up on the databased as taxed, just don't display the disc. And if you get caught doing that, its like 70quid fine. but at least you can drive it.

Book it in in for an MOT at your local station, then drive it home ;)

^^^ Im not going to explain this, use google to work it out ...

[craig1gk]

your allowed to drive it to a garage untaxed am i right? so if you took a long time and registered your house as a garage and got the certificates to do MOTs then your sorted :)

or google what that guy sayed ^^ lol
