just play sneaky ( ish ) - declare sorn online ( takes 20 seconds ) - then when you are ready to tax the car - either do it online or in the postoffice - it is that simple

because its declared sorn - you might only beable to tax it from the 1st of a month , where as if its taxed you can usually do it from around the 14th of a month ( as you have already paid for that month )

so becareful with that - no point walking in on the 20th May for example - as they will start the 6 months tax period from the 1st May

and you dont need Tax to get it to a MOT station ( or an MOT even aslong as its booked in ) - just insurance

so even if the MOT runs out and its declared SORN you can still drive it to the MOT place

i have done this loads of times to be honest ;)

me again :D - we bought a car for the better half and when we came to tax it - it had been declared sorn ( no idea how as it had a tax disc that was valid ??? ) and we had to wait till the end of the month OR pay for the current month

For the CO test - they should have done the 3.5 % CO / 1200 PPM HC test (no cat test) as CAT\'s weren\'t legally required at this time - and for imports weren\'t required until 96.

Your posting in the wrong place mate. In my opinion, Fd\'s don\'t touch FC\'s :D (puts on flame suit)
 
Though if you want an FD, now is the time to buy. You can pick up single turbo\'d ones with a recentish rebuild for £5k
 
Just remeber FC\'s are much cooler :wiggle

haha I do agree that fc are cool
I love my fc there\'s nth major wrong with mines just the occasional flat battery LOL but that\'s most my fault (stupid lights :p)
Engine is still as strong as ever since I got it two years ago.
Turns head everywhere I go.

Gotta love the attention lol

May not sale in the end tho :D
