151215 |  | The
changes to road tax seen over the last 15 months have produced some uncertainties
over road tax applications and SORNs when buying and selling a car and also when
making an application to change the tax class of eligible classic cars from PLG
to Historic. So what we would like from fellow members who have bought or sold
a classic car (or indeed any car secondhand car) in the last 6 months, are details
of when you applied for a road tax or SORN (immediately following your
closing a sale or purchase, when you got back home or later), which method
you used (at a Post Office counter, online on the GOV.UK website or by mail to
DVLA Swansea) and details of how the process went.
It is important
we learn from you what your real experience has been because the indications we
are getting suggest | the
process and timing of taxing, SORNing and changing the tax class from PLG
to Historic does not seem clear at all, particularly when buying and selling a
car. So if you have had relevant experience please do use our online survey form
which highlights the key areas of concern and questions. The form also provides
plenty of space for any additional account of your experience. Online survey <
unfortunately the form is malfunctioning so do email
your feedback |
