The way the tax works when you buy and sell is if the previous owner had it taxed. then he or she doesn't inform DVLA till towards the end of the month because they don't get part months refunded anyway.

and it's only the police who will know if it's taxed. and as long as it's still being shown as taxed on the system with the previous owner then nobody is to know that it's not you that hasn't taxed it.

nobody cares.
well they do but they have better things to do than worry about things like that.

I know of one car that has no MOT July 15. no TAX April 15 and no Insurance. and is being used everyday.
nobody cares. he's buying petrol so the VAT on that is good money to them.
