Default Hmmmmm 6 monthly car tax?

Just interested in your feedback on this one.

Lets say I've got two cars, but only want to run one at a time. I know theres loads of downfalls to this but hey thats not what I'm after.

What I want to know is how would you split the year into two 6-month periods, between summer and winter?

May to October for summer, November to April for winter?

Mar 21 (vernal equinox) to Sep 20 (Autumnal Equinox) is the change from equal night and day.

Exclamation

The worst thing i had when i had 2 cars was leaving my phone and stuff in the "other" one,plus swapping them in the driveway.
Gave it up as a bad job.

You can get a refund on your road tax at any time (to the nearest month)....so you could run 4 months and 8 months if need be with no financial loss.

What two cars are you thinking of running? If you want to run an open-top for the summer then you probably want May through September (at most) for summer and the remaining 7 months for winter - it rains too much in the other months.
