Hi all, late last October I purchased a new tax disk for the Disco. I asked for a 6 month one and paid for a 6 month one. However, after just casually glancing at it late December last year, I find that the disk expires on

If you get a reminder then go pay it, you get what you paid for. if you don't then........
Regards. Mark.(AKA, Mr.Nice.)
I had the same thing a couple of years ago. The DVLA soon noticed and I had to send it back to them and they sent me the correct one. However, if you haven't had a letter from them it looks like you might get 6 months free!

This happened to my mum a few years ago, the DVLA were soon onto it.
I'd have a peep on the DVLA website to see when they think your tax expires.
Free???? Gordon Brown? Garlic.... and bread?????
If I have to pay, well so I shall, but its all electronic these days, so I dont know how it slipped through
Alistair
Can you do that?

Ok, I must be daft cos I cannot find it.
Care to post the URL??
It was actually working last night and for the first time ever i managed to sorn something on it. IT is quite useful being able to look up your other vehicles and check when they should run out too.

31/35 here for car 1; 32/35 for car 2; 31/35 for motorbike 1. I failed the first lorry test, though to be fair the questions I got wrong were mainly HGV-specific, so weren't something I'd normally be expected to know about. I don't think I can be bothered with the bus test after all that little lot.
Well, having not read the UK Road Code since 1985 or thereabouts, and applying commonsense I managed to get 27 on car 1. I missed the bits about trams and speed limits and a couple of the signs that are different.
31 on Car 1, 33 on Car 2. Fall down mostly on trams. And WTS is a "toucan" crossing - one with a boodly grate beak sticking out into the road or something? Or what? They didn't have them when I was a lad...
The nearest to me is in Notts. It's a normal light-controlled crossing (no flashing amber ambiguity phase) whot is intended for people on bikes to cross car traffic without getting off & pretending to be pedestrians.
Pertty rare really, & I don't know why they have such a silly name.
25/27 on car1 my browser wouldn't let me answer the others. The tram one I got wrong, and one other I accidentally clicked the wrong second choice[77]
Toucan crossing - two can cross, bikes and peds. That's wot a fiend (who is a driving distructor) tolled me.
[77]Didn't read the question properly
See other psot. Quite common here. The next town has lots of puffin(no flashing amber - they have sensors for peds on the crossing) crossings too (it has no pelicans).
Our local council is still installing blub trype lights and pelicans, job lot cheep in year dot, or more likely they's luddites. They also take ages to change fauwlty blubs.
Bicyclists and pedestrians. Two can?
One can surprise you, that there could be toucan be a matter of disbelief?
