Buying a taxed bike on the evening of the 30th

[pikey666]

I am going to collect a bike tomorrow evening that is currently taxed until February 2015.
If I make sure that the v5 is dated for the 30th will the tax transfer to me or do I need to tax it online before I leave?
I realise that common sense and the dvla don't often mix.

New rules are from the 1st of October.

Because we still can't do change of keeper online[*], it'll be days before the DVLA will even know that it happened.

So you're good to then at least.


[*] It's "planned", but will they want to give up that sweet, sweet penalty notice racket?

I'm picking up a new van at the end of the week and was planning on just dating the V5 back to sept. It's a bit of a risk though as the guy might have picked up a speeding ticket ect.

How would you actually buy the tax legally though? Surely I can't tax it before I've picked it up and am actually the registered keeper which means I would have to drive home untaxed unless you can do it over the phone.

From what I have heard they don't get a refund until dvla get the change of keepers slip.so I guess until then it's still taxed

All these people claiming their car is now untaxed and can't legally drive....


Did you not still have the ability to tax the car in the last few weeks since the reminder came through the post?


I've always taxed my car/bike within days of the reminder, and it keeps the 12 months from the date of the previous disc.


Don't really know much about this new system other than theres no disc and sold vehicles get taxed twice for the DVLA pocket monies

Delayed in post.

Prove I didn't send it etc. Would like to try dating one at Xmas, from myself, to myself. Yeah it adds a previous owner but who cares

[bikertomm]

Right then chums. (Pikeys)

Also would come with free insurance too?

And free fuel.

You'd be pretty safe, most "policing" is done by ANPR now.

Don't drive anything popular with chavs or dodgy diversities, don't stack it or get stopped by a live copper.

If you do, you're looking at perverting the course of justice, and a custodial sentence is the default.

It's a gambit for real gangtas and proper pikeys, not for anyone who intends to ever have a real job or mortgage.

After renewing the bikes tax yesterday, today I junked my brushed finished waterproof hexagon style holder.

The bike now feels so much more responsive and pops up in 4th easy now without that extra weight up front .

Not to mention improved mpg.

I taxed on line just now (now much more streamlined). Taken the tax disc holder off too, it now does over 200mph with the new aerodynamics and weight saving.
