Ok, tax is up at the end of this month for the C5
No slip yet, so used log book and reg number to log in.
DVLA says car has no tax!
However, I do have a tax disc, which has the correctdetails and runs out 30/04/2014
Passed an ANPR camera car the other day too, wouldnt the 5-0 have appeared and ticketed me if the car showed up as no tax?
Should I worry?

Could be that the last owner reclaimed it via purchasing a duplicate disc

Thatll be on the system wont it? and he'll have had to return the disc to the DVLA?
So if I have a legit tax disc, the focus will shift to him?

Have you checked on the DVLA tax checker thing? Or is that what you're talking about?

Yeah, needed the reg and doc reference number from the logbook, if they didnt match im sure the DVLA wouldnt have let me continue!
Doing a tax check now on RJ52 XKG
The date is 16/12/2013, which is the date I bought the car
Ok phoned the DVLA
Tax is showing (the disc i've got is legit)
Car was also registered SORN
My new tax is showing, but will start a month earlier (meaning i've paid for 12 months and got 11)
Was thinking about it, itll be to do with this new insurance/tax nonsense. I had it when I sold my saab, basically you cant have a car that is taxed but not insured. A car with no insurance HAS to be SORN
When I wanted to transfer insurance from Saab to citroen, I had to SORN Saab first or insurance wouldnt swap it over, said I'd get a fine.
