nope. Annual thing which entitles you to legally have the car on the road. You could still have MOTs and take or send same to a licensing office, to show that it was in usable condition.
But you'd not get the effect that by having insurance valid for 1 week you can go to the post office and get tax, which makes your car *look* legal, and then drive without insurance for the next 51 weeks.
You got that right!
