SORN Question - Sorry if Asked Before.

[SCEtoAUX]

My little Aygo costs just £20/year in VED.

I'm going to SORN it this evening having paid a year's VED last July. (MR2 going back on the road instead).

Because the VED is so low I can only pay yearly, so if when I declare it SORN this evening will I get a small refund, or because of the yearly thing do I end up 'losing' the VED I'll have paid for April, May and June?

We're talking very small amounts of money, but I'd like to know and a search online doesn't really reveal much.

Thanks for any help.

Any whole unused months will be refunded.

OK thanks. Looking forward to a five pounds refund :-)

For the sake of £1.67/month, why not just leave it taxed in case you want/need to use it?

Well because if it's taxed is has to be insured, and I swap my insurance with my MR2 and will use that for the next few months. It will live in the garage so there seems little point in wasting £20/month. (If it were more valuable I would insure it of course).

It doesn't cost me anything to swap my insurance between cars with Aviva, no matter how many times I do it.

In truth, I am thinking about insuring all three, but the question was more out of interest really, having failed to find a definitive answer at the DVLA website.
