Quick question- road tax

[imissworthing2]

The tax on our car ran out yesterday and we can't find the log book or renewal letter to tax it. Can anyone suggest what we can do to get it on the road again?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks mate. Looks like I'll be getting a new log book. There's no way the post office would let me away with only having mot cert and insurance details?

Have a look on line - you might not need the log book - you might need the renewal notice though

You no longer need to provide the certificate of motor insurance

Although you do need to be insured !

I lost my log book last year which you will need or as was also mentioned the notice which has a code on it. You need to fill in a relevant form and send a cheque or POSTAL. Think its £50!

Need one or the other I'm afraid. It's going to be a complete ball ache tomorrow: getting kids to school and creche and then myself to work 4 nine. O well that'll teach me ������

To save the NSC cyclists the trouble ... road tax was abolished in 1937.

But it is still called tax

Just ring DVLA, give them what details you have there send you a new log book and that will cost £25. You can road tax the vehicle at the same time if you have MOT and Insurance in place. I do it all the time when changing my classic cars that don't have the registration forms.

I would agree with that and better that you have made the effort by ringing them than being caught with no tax. Remember that you no longer need to display a tax disc on the car as it is all done electronically now so if you are displaying an out of date road tax disc I would remove it.
