buying a little run around tomorrow, where do i stand on road tax?

Sorted the insurance to kick in at mid-day and the car is being MOT'd in the morning (having already been checked), can I drive it over the weekend and sort it on Tuesday or will I get in big bother?

Why isn't it taxed? Unless someone has completed a sorn the dvlc will be looking for blood and iit looks like you are the donor atm.

But if post offices are closed, will the five-o be able to lock me up and ting?

I thought maybe I could get out of it by saying, 'just bought the car gov'

Would be bare vexed if I got pinched.

I'm buying it from a garage, the MOT is out of date, it is being MOT'd before I buy it but doesnt currently have Tax.

hmmm most reputable garages wouldn't let you take it away untaxed, but maybe the garages I've dealt with are outliers on the normal distribution curve of reputability.

when i bought my main car, which was new, it was all taxed up.  The place I'm getting this one from is very unlikely to sort out the tax, the gent explained to me that some cars come with some tax and others dont.

Which was nice.

If you renew the tax online they give you 3 working days or something for delivery so just say you've done it online imo

my road tax is taken care for me by the motabiblty people but i dont think you can road tax a car without valid insurance and MOT
if you was to buy 12 months now you would get it to end of may 2012
