When I SORN'd my P38 recently you couldn't re-tax online for 5 days, you had to visit a post office in this period. |

Yep, just joined the SORN club now too. Tax too expensive having it sat there in the driveway doing sod all for the next few months. 09 RR Westminster 3.6TDV8 - Stornoway Grey / Black interior - now gone (sad face)

CBA'd to save a few quid a month. And I'd probably forget to retax it when the lockdown is over |

Would the insurers want it taxed?

About to check with insurers. However in my case it's at the top end of the driveway behind two other cars and the ignition is disabled via the tracker, so unless they get a transporter up my driveway and past two other cars, theft ain't happening.
