JetSet Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 To remove the now redundant tax disc? Pete Quote
Ekona Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Nope. Haven't had one in my truck since January Quote
Wayne370Z Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 No, mine fell off yesterday. Just going to take the one off the bike now and I`ll take the wifes out of her Mokka when she gets home from work. Think I`ll leave the one in the MGF since that ran out in 2008 and makes me think it really is about time I got it back on the road again every time I see it. Quote
twobears Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Stanley hasn't got one yet and I guess he won't be getting one now I posted Mr Zedder's and the Unnamed Fiesta's discs off yesterday and it felt odd, knowing that it was the last time I'd ever have a paper tax disc. Hopefully, the new system will be better though and certainly less stickers on my windscreen will be good. I hate stickers on the screen and have already had to peel two off Stanley Quote
pjf1985 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I haven't had mine up for about a month lol. Kept falling off the window so I just left it off after getting annoyed Quote
mouthwash Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I wonder if the police could prosecute all of the people that are about to post on the internet 'Naaah mate, haven't had mine displayed for ages because thug life.' Quote
JetSet Posted October 1, 2014 Author Posted October 1, 2014 I left mine on till the official removal date, today, as I once got fined a fiver for failing to display it, that was in 1969 though Pete 3 Quote

If you do get one, keep it, could be worth a bob or two as it'll be one of the last. http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/cars/article-2736865/Tax-discs-abolished-October-old-ones-worth-bob-two.html Pete 1 Quote

tatooandy67 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Peeled mine off this morning about 6:45 as I set out for work, ran out yesterday so perfect timing of course I still had to pay the extortionate fees to stay on the road though, feeling just a little bit more ripped off now though as I won't even get a paper receipt, just a email saying thank you for being mugged Edited October 1, 2014 by tatooandy67 1 Quote
350zedd Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Mug of tea on mine at the mo Look forward to the 1% increased vision..ha! Quote
-Bradders- Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I heard if you've still got months left on it, it still needs to be displayed? Also i've seen someone post somewhere that someone was asking 'do i need to get my tax from my insurance now or do i just wait to get it with my MOT?' REALLY??? lol Quote
jumping350 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I got my tax yesterday I thought you could pay monthly? apparently not so paid the lot as usual, I got a receipt as went into postoffice...anyone want to buy an aluminium tax disc holder? Quote
GIXXERUK Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Took mine off last night, the dvla website states it no longer needs to be displayed from today Quote
docwra Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I dont think Ive put one in my Range Rover the whole 2 years Ive owned it Quote

I thought it could be payed monthly too but after checking the gov.co blah blah website the option to set up monthly DD comes in from 1st November so I'm gutted as I had to shell out £260 for 6 months tax, skint now roll on payday Edited October 1, 2014 by tatooandy67 Quote
370Ad Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) I got mine last month so its probably the last one sent out? Full year at £485. Are you saying I can now keep it for 20 years then sell it for millions Edited October 1, 2014 by 370Ad Quote
KyleR Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Taxed the BM for 6 months last week when I picked it up. Hopefully DD will work as flawlessly in NI as I'm sure it will on the mainland because we currently still have to produce our insurance at the Post Office when taxing. Quote
Wasso Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I had my screen replaced last Thursday, since then I've not had time to find some replacement stickies to place it back on the screen. So I'd say you're well slow Pete Quote
Martinjj Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 It said on sky news earlier this morning that the Number Plate Recognition "thinggy", misreads over 1 million registrations per day. Mines up for renewal November 1st, just in time for direct debit.. Quote

Toadfish Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Doesn't seem like the new system is coping too well at the moment http://www.bbc.co.uk...siness-29430979 Edited October 1, 2014 by Toadfish Quote

wmr1980 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I'm going to be leaving mine until it expires since I only got mine 2 months ago! Might as well keep displaying it! Quote
