DarkJackal Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 No buddy, get the guy to tax it for you before you leave or use a trailer.No tax your insurance is void also, if your pulled you can get a £2000 fine and the car crushed mate. Not worth the risk in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Driver Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 You legally aloud to drive it to an MOT station to a booked MOT even if the car MOT has expired so if you book an MOT for the afternoon you pick car up you could get away with that.Tax is differant however you cant tax it without MOT so should be able to blag it (i have in the past a few times) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
