This is why there are plenty of uninsured drivers on the road

I'd send the car keys as well so they can install the new tax disc. That would improve the service considerably

That's Castle Car Park in York.

Their scheme has clearly worked on the typical GTR driver

Can't see why that is illegal.

One slight flaw though. Surely if they are viewing the ebay ad, they know how to use a bloody computer and internet??

Does mention MOT, but not insurance. In reply to the OP, I'm guessing they're charging for using a trade policy to tax your car. I can see this having genuine uses when selling a car that's been sorned and going to be sold, rather than paying exorbitant insurance prices for a policy that's only needed for a couple of days at best.

That said, the rules about needing insurance and mot to tax the car are there for a reason.

They should be done for false pretences since that will lead to uninsured cars on the road.

Wonder how many have fallen for that one!
