    Ah great... I'll go fishing under the seats of my car tomorrow for my documents.... I'm sure that's where they are. I know it's MoT'd and insured, they happen in April, so it's just a paper exercise to get it taxed.

    You don't need to find your MOT and insurance documents to tax it online. they check those electronically. You only need them to tax at a post office.

    As an aside, it's not necessarily a good idea to keep the logbook in the car, if it gets stolen having the paperwork makes it easier for the thief to sell the car.

    My nearest tax issuing post office has 6 counters but only ever one person serving. And with queues to the door life is too short to wait that long.

    If they really want to save the post office, then they either need to put all services in all post offices and/or employ more staff.

    Plus you need to bring more, not less, paperwork with you to tax it at a post office.
