Uninsured car parked in front of my house

hewhoisnotintheknow

i often have 2 or 3 cars at my house, i contract for different people and they all give me different cars, luckily i have somewhere to keep them, but if i didnt it would probably cause a situation like this

to put your mind at rest contact the cop shop, if they do something result, if not its probably all above board

out of interest are they showing valid road fund licences (tax discs)?
Cos you can't (officially) buy them if the vehicle is uninsured.

If he is trading in a residential are then the council should be interested.

Although they're unlikely to take action without a specific complaint that they are doing something against the law. If you start making things up then you may feel the sharp end of the words "wasting police time".

Tax runs out end of next month. It seems he bought the van with this tax still on.
The man is weird cos like i said council have spoken to him and have recently removed one of his vehicles that he dumped and later claimed it belonged to the finance company. so he has history

Lum if your friend is not in the motor trade and has taken a policy out to get cheaper insurance on his Porsche he will get a shock if he ever makes a claim as they will insist on proof he is in the motortrade eg his books or other evidence. If he cannot provide this they will through out the claim (A lot of the cheap and chearful Road Risk Motor Trade Policy only offer Third Party Only Cover on Porsches and the like).

If he is with Tradex they have a reputation as one of the worst Insurers in the market.

Well he can only get tax if he has insurance so you have a while to wait

Thanks for this. I am happy you have pointed this out to Lum cos i found it hard to understand how anyone would do something like this and end up with issues when time to claim comes up

They never looked for weapons in Iraq and they knew exactly where the oil was - as long as it never got to China it did not matter how many innocent people were killed - but we digress!!
