Historic Vehicle Road Tax and pre-1960 no MOT
Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2012 3:02 pm
Folks,
My 1956 Series II Traveller is ready to go back on the road. I thought that I would see what happens with the DVLA online system in changing its status from SORN to Taxed.
It has no current MOT (last MOT and pass was Dec 2007), but is Insured. The electronic system accepted all the necessary electronic checks and has issued me with a NIL cost Tax Disc (will be with me in 5 days time, apparently).
The first thing that I will be doing is booking an appointment at my nearest MOT station, for them to prove to me that I have performed all the necessary work to a safe standard (which, thankfully, wasn't a lot) and that I haven't missed anything. Will post updates later.
