Rolled it out today for a final blast in the sunshine before SORN. Got two miles down the road and thought "hello", the bonnet seems to be moving strangely. A quick look underneath and it appeard the fore/aft stud had snapped. Got it home and found it had just unscrewed. No time to fix though so had to do the trip in the Toyota. Not happy! I really must do more miles in it next year. This year's excuse(s) was refitting the kitchen and bathroom. Not blcensoreddy good enough. I know! What we need is a nice long trip to somewhere exciting thumbup That's your cue Longers laugh

Why not buy a full 12 months and get to use it whenever you want instead of 50% of the time?

63p/day @£230
plus they surcharge for 6 months so you might as well buy 12 and cash in whatever you choose not to use.
Have some happy winter motoring smile

As we no longer need a paper disc, wouldn't it be so much easier just to be able to buy a day or days over the internet as required, like the congestion charge? Ah but then that would be a tax on usage (like it's supposed to be!) wouldn't it, rather than a tax on ownership. Thieving bascensoredds !!furious

Or you could buy a pre 1974 ? TVR and not have to pay any V.E.D. Joe.
Mind you, most of them are fixed heads, so you wouldn't be able to go topless whenever the mood takes you frown
