Only if you order your tax online before the month end, You can drive the car to the mot station for retest or to a place of repair without tax so if that's on Tuesday you should be ok.Be Alert..........Britain needs lerts.0

When is the MOT due date ?
Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.
Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

I'd guess Tuesday, since that's the first of October.1. Have you tried to Google the answer?
2. If you were in the other person's shoes, how would you react?
3. Do you want a quick answer or better understanding?0 -

Drive the car to the MOT station to get repaired, then to the post office with your shiny new MOT0

You should be able to apply on line now as the vehicle will still have a current MOT until midnight on the 1st October.

It's helpfully spelt out on the reminder
so I'll just quote (emphasis is mine)
"If you can't tax on time (for example when getting an MoT or insurance for your vehicle): By law, you as the registered keeper will not be committing an offence as long as you tax the vehicle or make a SORN within 14 days of the date your tax disc or SORN runs out. However, you must keep your vehicle off the road during that time."Now free from the incompetence of vodafail0
