You owe tax from the date of sale, so you will have to tax it for June :crying:Quote:

Your liable from 1/6/14...
If you wait until next month, your still liable for this months tax.
"sell" it to a family member / friend and then "buy" it back. Though it may be more the start of August before it gets sorted.
I wouldn't add another owner just to save a few quid.Quote:

If the owner has not sent off the log book Mick as them to hold off until 1st of July
It wouldn't bother me in the least to add another owner to save a few bob? It's a 1997 3 series,not a new m5???Quote:

get the owner to write 1st of july as date of sale on the log book.
