Taggart 0 Posted January 4, 2006 Can you not get 6 months tax in the IoM like you can over here? Not as far as I could tell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted January 4, 2006 £90? You mean £184. I'm gonna go get it now and put it on the car. I didnt realise you couldnt get 6 months tax over there, thats what i was refering to. Still, you should be able to get most of it back, you'll probably lose the cost of a months tax. Good luck sorting it all out, its a gutting experiance.

Phil K 0 Posted January 4, 2006 Sorry to hear about this... glad your OK though! Best of luck getting everything sorted... did the cops spot the tax? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZippyVR6 0 Posted January 4, 2006 road tax is a customs and excise thing and should have no bearing on insurance cover. the one that counts with insurance is MOT. So I wouldn't panic about it. Gutted for you about the car, WTF is happening to all these C's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taggart 0 Posted January 4, 2006 They were OK about it, I said the reason I didn't have my insurance docs with me is because I had them at work to get the tax. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
