The MOT check is a good one.

I know. but read this part slowly.....

before when you could transfer the tax disc with the car. DVLA wouldn't get 2 lots of money for 2 weeks worth of tax.
now with the changes it will be paid for twice.

Now if you buy a car say today. you'd have to tax it from the 1st of this month.

where before if the seller left the tax on. you could drive it away and pay for tax from the 1st of next month instead.

please tell me you get it now so I don't cry over my Sunday dinner.
