So Ive been really busy with work latley and I just went to check when my MOT was due this month, turns out it expired on the 1st, I havnt driven my car since as i know the insurance is now invalid, I'm having to get an overdraft to pay for the Mot now as i have no money left till next friday....

should i expect a fine in the post from the DVLA? or are they leaniant and give a few days sake if i book it now?

you should be fine, take it into the an MOT place as soon as possible and get your tax sorted ASAP. my boss totally forgot about his for a month and he didn't get in trouble.

if your feeling unsure, give the DVLA a call, or check on direct.gov.uk, if you're upfront and honest about it, i don't think they will mind.

that reminds me, got to get my car taz sorted soon.

cheers dude, it's booked in for tomrow morning hopefully it should be fine. its taxed till october and insured. just ive had to be a bit tight with money latley and i didnt know weather i was going to get a nasty fine throught the post

haha, tight for us all i think at the moment, had to fork out for mine too. Hope your not employed in the public sector like me!

Ha ha tescos finest cashier right here, its gonna cost me £40 for the MOT  sadly its a 1996 corsa and its ages is starting to show, it sailed throught its last MOT  just hope for the same this time
