End of the tax disc

End of the tax disc
I think it comes into effect from the 11th of October? Either way you will not receive a tax disc for your car anymore. Always annoyed me if I was waiting for DVLA to deliver the disc and possibly have some council jobsworth stick a ticket on me for failing to display a ticket even though my vehicle was taxed.

You'll invariably need to buy 5 new little clear plastic sticky discs though...

Cool. Yeah they do look tidy.
I'll set a reminder on my phone to PM you at the time, so as to get your postal address.
(BTW, you don't need the 6 Allen bolts in that kit, as mine is the much-easier-to-use twist-off affair (with the 5 'dummy' Allen bolts in the cover ).
TIP: Ensure you first clean the area of windscreen with alcohol wipes, or meths or whatever.

So come the 1st I can just remove the disk from all my vehicles and some jobsworth can't ticket me ? As I was sure it was later
I'm taking mine off on the 1st just in the hope it will start the neighbours off

Could do with a good old fashioned Public Service broadcast.
Preferably without Rolf Harris.

And don't forget the nice little change that from October any remaining road tax will not transfer to the new owner with a vehicle when you sell it.
Instead, you have to get a road tax refund on any tax remaining on the vehicle, while the buyer will have to pay to re-tax the car, BUT (and here's the government's clever bit) you can only get a tax refund on any whole months remaining whilst the buyer can only tax the vehicle from the start of the current month.
i.e. if you sell a vehicle on 15th October and it's taxed to 31 December you get November and December's tax back, but not Octobers' whereas the buyer has to pay for October thereby meaning the government get an extra month's tax.... apparently this will net them a nice £65 million a year.
As with any UK government of recent times no change like this is ever made without it costing us the public more money and adding to their tax revenues that they then waste. W4nkers the lot of them!
