Car Tax cannot be sold on when a car is sold!
Most of us know that the 'Tax Disc', first introduced in 1921, is disappearing from the 1st October, but what I, and apparently most motorists don't realise is that from then on, you can't sell a car as 'Taxed', with the new owner enjoying the amount of 'tax' left unused. The legal requirement now means that the seller will advise the DVLA of the sale and they will automatically refund the outstanding unused amount. The new owner is liable for the 'taxation' from day one of their new ownership and presumably will have to tax the car before it is collected.
Roadside enforcement will now be done by NPR systems and enforced by the Police. Anybody flouting the rules is liable to a fine of up to £1,000! Roverite. |
