DVLA un masked robbers

[DAZ400]

Ok as you might know, I am moving to Menorca before the end of this month and am taking my loverly 2 with me.

The tax is due to expire the end of April so I am thinking that is ok I will be gone by then so I don't need to renew it, WRONG.

I will be re registering my car over there but even though I am not driving on th UK roads I still have to have it taxed until the registration change is done, go figure.

UK goverment squeasing every penny out of me must leave for better life .........   s8) s8)

[mph]

I don't understand. If it's not on uk roads, it's therefore off road and applicable for SORN status, no?

[SteveJ]

As Martin say's - declare SORN on the vehicle - as long as you are not driving or storing it on public roads then you are covered.

That is what I thought, but not what they said when I rang them today as far as they are concerned if it is uk registered and still being driven even overseas it has to be taxed.

As I said they are criminally robbing us.............   s:D s:D

[markiii]

they are talking rubbish. it cab be registered and anywhereyou want as long as it's not being driven on uk roads. Tell them to sod off.

[DAZ400]

Decided to ring them again spoke to a man this time and he said what I need to do is send the registration form in and mark it as the car is exported and then I do not need to tax it.

RESULT   s:D s:D
