Yes, the tax disc was purchased with cash at a local PO (on 31st Dec).


No accidents & we've had the car for approx 18 months.


Showing online as taxed, but will ask the DVLA to check their record as suggested, thanks.

Should also add, the car was SORN from September to end of December (last year), I assume that may have something to do with it?

no need to get snappy!, the poster was only pointing out a mistake to save you making it again when you do further enquiries

For what it's work I think they have misread the PNC page. The tax database isn't up to date and when the PNC has no details it shows aa 'VEL not held'. This means the system holds no tax details an not that the vehicle isn't taxed.

I was pulled over by the police as ANRP showing as having no tax on car. I have tax, MOT and insurance so ok on that front.

I was warned that I may be pulled over in the next few weeks until records updated. I was told by the officer that DVLA had put a marker on the car.

I called DVLA who said no marker on car so called local force. I was told that DVLA would not have put a marker on the car and marker is just jargon.

Would I be wasting my time if I called DVLA again? What would I need to ask? I obviously didn't ask the right question when I called up before.

I am legal tax, MOT and insurance wise but would rather not be picked up on ANRP if I can help it.

Is the OP Schizophrenic or two different people?

Crikey! I was only informing you of the correct term as you had named it incorrectly more than once and figured it would be best that you knew the correct acronymn to avoid possible confusion later. I'll remember to try help you again!

Thanks for the replies.

We are two different people and my brother is being a muppet.

Just my opinion, we'll have to agree to disagree.

I know exactly what ANPR is, I was merely making a point that IMO your post was condescending to the OP. On a final note; I've made it through life without any help from you so far, I'm sure I can continue to do the same!

Happens all the time unfortunately as DVLA or whoever take time to update their systems. My missus has been stopped twice for just this reason. One look by the police at what is clearly a valid real tax disc in the window and she is sent on her way again.

The Police ANPR list for car tax is only updated on a 4-8 weekly basis. The police generally focus more on keeping their PNC and Insurance databases more up to the minute.

It costs money to get the list of data to upload, so I should imagine it could get even slower with recent cuts.

The DVLA's own ANPR vehicles are updated every 10 days however.

It is therefore likely that although the DVLA's records are up to date and correct, the list held by your local force's ANPR is just older data.

The police have the ability to switch off certain data lists, when operating ANPR, and many don't use the DVLA's car tax lists due to the data being old.
