It has no markings or VIN as trailers do, very very very strange; I must put on my sleuthing cap once more now there is room for another major story following the Scottish loosing yet another battle
It's a friggin scam,absolutely nothing to do with efficiency/saving the taxpayer money/whatever. I've just taxed one of my trucks,cost about £750 for six months.The truck is for sale and not currently in use,but I keep it road legal just in case. If someone buys it today,I lose one sixth of the £750,and the buyer has to buy the tax for the rest of the month,costing him £125.... As for saving the cost of printing the disc,( last month for my ST2) ,they sent a picture and instructions to print it myself! No cost to to them! As usual,it's dog shit in a shiny wrapper....
you'll get the tax back for each full month remaining when they get the V5 requesting change of owner. The buyer will need to initiate a new tax year. I'm just waiting to see how long before the news reports that the system's falling flat on its face.
