"riving an untaxed vehicle to an MOT test

You can drive your vehicle to and from a pre-arranged test at an MOT test station provided you have adequate insurance cover in place for the use of that vehicle.



This also applies to vehicles being driven to and from a prearranged test at a Vehicle Inspection Check (VIC) test station, an approved weight testing station and reduced pollution test."



Therefore you can drive the car back after the test but you need it to be off road until you have it taxed.

you can mot it without tax but you can't tax without mot, pre book it at a mot station so you'll be covered driving it there with no mot, yes your spot on with disablement taxation about going to a dvlc centre to change the taxation class of the vehicle, l have to do this but at the other end of the spectrum, as l'm disabled. and have to change the vehicle to disablement class. did the previous owner retain his tax disc, if not you will need to surrender the disc at the dvlc centre when you tax the vehicle,

You can change the taxation class without an MOT. You are allowed to drive a car without tax to an MOT test providing you have boked a test and have proof of the booking with you in case you are stopped. You are only allowed to drive to the test station and back. No other driving is allowed.

You should be fine, keep a copy of the garages number and a receipt of the booking with you when you drive over. Present these to the officer if you are stopped and it should be fine. They may ask you to produce at the station with in a set time a copy of the MOT for proof.

yes lol! but u will have o have ur mot to tax ur car!!! if ur car is declared off the road then u can leaglly drive it to a mot test station so what i would do is drive it to an mot test test staion get ur certificate leave ur car at the test station go the post office get ur tax and call the dvla if it was off the road. good luck x x x

As long as the car is booked in for the MOT it is road legal, but only to and from the test centre. Make sure you have proof if stopped (appointment letter or test centre phone number so police can confirm).

Boris is correct, you may drive it untaxed to the testing centre for the purposes of a PRE-BOOKED MoT - for precisely the sort of reason you give.



Hope that helps.

YOu are not the only one,I have ever met the similiar problem before.I have good experience here though.http://carinsurance.expertsupport.info/a...

Yes you can BUT pre book it to cover yourself for driving it on the road with no tax

YES!

yes - but book in with Garage first... I did this last year & was stopped by Police & they checked Garage & let me go on ok . No fines etc ....

yes just ring and book it it...BUT you must take the shortest route to/from the mot station..no going for a spin,then u are braking the law.
