Evening all, I need some help. I've taken a punt on a winter stbox on ebay and it looks like I might win it. Problem is, it's in Bournemouth and I'm in Cannock. If it was more local or even within fifty miles I might risk it but that far (161 miles) is not gonna cut it even if it's booked in locally for Monday AM is it? Also I can't tax it without an MOT, can I? So is there anywhere local I can get a test on a Sunday?

Anyone? The car is actually in Ferndown. Alternatively, does anyone local have an off road space I can stick it on until next weekend?

Kwik Fit? The centre in Hamworthy, Poole is showing MOT appointments available for tomorrow.

I don’t think they check anything when you buy tax now.

Taking a st box without MOT to Kwik-Fit - seriously?

Yes a check for valid mot is done before tax can be issued.
