CoC was definitely free back in '22 when I got mine for this process.

Maybe call one of our site sponsors Howden (formerly A-Plan) as they are a specialist broker.

That's why if I do I also track through topcashback and get 10% or sometimes 12% back so it is less painful but still convenient..

I can't help thinking it is simpler just to keep it taxed but parked up. That way should there be a nice sunny winter or spring day you can take it out, plus allows a couple of runs over the winter to keep fluids moving properly and the battery conditioned under load. Then again mine only costs £325 to tax, under £300 to insure and lives on the drive, so little to save and easy to access but saves any potential for query in the even of a claim.

Many policies require the car to be insured and taxed. SORN'd isn't taxed. They will wriggle out of it!!

There really are some gems hidden in the history on this forum. I'm only 5 years late finding this one!!! 🤣🤣

I thought you were being a bit free with the don't bother notifying approach. That English language is a bugger to master...

@Wish your thoughts?

Have you put a younger clean record second driver on the car? I genuinely do drive my mother's car from time to time, dropped the premiums by about 20% putting me on as named driver.

Getting the V5C updated is may be more of a challenge. I've not attempted this yet myself as while I own the car and it is on ULEZ it is not a priority, but I believe some who have have been told it is a 'no can do' by DVLA but I'm not sure of the circumstances.

I only got confirmations from either TfL or CAZ at DVLA to online submissions, not to individual emails.

In Porsche speak, '1997' is 1997 model year onwards. All 986s are 1997 or later model year even if they were built in 1996.

2000 3.2 S 986 with business use for me and The Better ½, European cover, 7k miles pa, not agreed value parked on my drive in NN15, £192 and I have max NCD (that will be your stumbling block as many required individual NCDs to be built up) with SAGA (if you are 50 or over in the near future).

@Richard Hamilton?
