Hi
Snap. I was in the same situation last week. Got Grays Exhausts and tyres (Eltham SE London), to pre-MOT service my car.
To cut a long story short, they decided to MOT it as well. It's a decatted MY00, and it passed the emissions test.
Eltham is a fair journey for you, but may be worth it, especialy as there emissions machine is in a good mood.

Quite handy when a machine is in a good mood
Just read on a site that "a current MOT test certificate, which must be valid on the date the new tax disc comes into force.", so I guess technically if my MOT ran out on the 6th December if I back date the tax to when it ran out I should be ok...hmmm could be worth a try, lol if that fails then I guess I'll be driving to London.
Cheers again

Anybody else got any ideas?, thinking of contacting the DVLA and explaining things but there probably just slap me in the face with a grand fine ...don't suppose there's anyone in Cambridge with a sport cat down pipe for sale?...and know anywhere I can get it fitted?

Anyway, have you got another car you can use, or the bus??? It's just unlucky that a lot of tyre and emissions places get an extended christmas break till 2nd jan.

Its a bit late now to do what should of been done at the beginning of the month... what he should be doing right now is not trying to do what should of been done but instead get intouch with the dvla and explain the situation along with going to his doctor and get something to back it up.
It could be a hard task to proove total incapability to get the tax sorted or at least have advised the dvla since so many resources are made available now days.
Like i said..in my personal opinion i find it a bit hard to overlook this for a near whole month and also base this on the patern of postings you made this month here but if indeed you have or think you have a valid reason do has I said above and get intouch with the dvla before they get intouch with you Happy seasons greetings.

First off cheers ScoobLou, RJMS and Ralph and anyone else for the help (I now apologise in advance to the majority on this sit for what I'm about to wright but I'm in a sh*t and stressed out mood ) as for some other tw*ats on this site....kiss my fecking sick ***! , I hate judgemental prats who obviously never make mistakes in there lives, are OH! so organised that they never forget to do anything! and have obviously had such wonderful lives that they have know idea what its like to have depression, a serious injury, a possibly dangerous condition that requires operating on that's when the NHS can get round to it! and that requires you to be on pain killers all day so that you don't get a pain that can only be described as having a red hot knife pushed into your stomach!.
Scoobynet is a great site with some brilliant friendly and very helpful people, its just a shame that its gradually being infested by self righteous!, opinionated!, contacorus!, pedantic! and not forgetting judgemental wa*nkers! who just cant help but comment on people and things they know nothing about, I know its an open forum etc etc and people are free to say what they want, but come on! why do some people have to be such f***in t****rs with it.
Apologies again to all those decent people out there but some people really p**s me off at the moment.
