Wife is NHS so need the car for work.

What I would be enjoying is the £1.02 a litre to fill up, but because we are only using it for wife’s commute (very local) I filled it up a few weeks ago and it’s still got half a tank.

In a funny sort of way on a vehicle that averages about 16mpg, I wish I could take advantage of the lower price

PS I’m aware the lower price is because not many are using their cars

Just spoke to my insurers to advise them of SORN status - made a note on my account but otherwise not that bothered. Policy unaffected. 09 RR Westminster 3.6TDV8 - Stornoway Grey / Black interior - now gone (sad face)

good point...if it gets stolen from your driveway and its sorn'd, is it still insured..

My good lady wife has expressed a preference for my car to be ‘ready to go” in case of emergencies, so it’ll be taxed again tomorrow. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

SORN the fatty and the M4. Going to keep the old work horse taxed just for nipping out to pick up essentials. Figured with the other two being SORN there will be no temptation to sneak out for a drive.

Stan who?

Just SORNed mine I don't think it will be going anywhere for a month or so and if I am really stuck can always use the wifes car - she needs it to get food and beer  Geoff

I SORNd my car on 31st March and just this morning got a cheque for £138.75 as a VED refund - how did they work that out? Geoff

Forget my last post, I must have had a bit of spare cash last year and taxed for a year and the money sent to me was simply a refund for the unused period. Obviously when I put it back on the road I will have to pay VED from then (backdated to the beginning of the month so I will be looking to do it on the 1st of whenever) - probably monthly this time. Geoff
