I have a private plate going on my new M5 1st september which is a Sunday, I applied on the 12th July and got it back today no problems. I am collecting my car on Sunday and it will be taxed on that day at the dealership ( Disks on site). PS) you should get your stuff back in a week or so.

You're getting a new M5? Not sure you mentioned that before...?
Jealous, me? No, why would I be...?

Picked my new car up on the 12th July, forgot to fill in the 7 day insurance until about 12, my car was taxed (at the dealer) for collection at 3, so yes they are still printing own tax discs.

I think it was on the 26th.. Its a company car purchase 'leaseplan'.. I have the order slip copy but can't work out exactly when the order was placed....
Wasn't too bothered about the new plate...but as luck would have it. Only downside is I have to drive a hire car and currently I have a Citreon DS5... not a good vehicle!

Same here. Sad fact is it will make a difference to book value at time of trade in.

I'm back on for September delivery - apparently there was a restriction on the 19" 403s (ie they ran out) but I guess they fixed their supply chain issues!

No the dealer is not pulling a fast one, No your dealer even with a tax disc printer cannot issue a tax disc. Allow plenty of time as you are now dealing with a crappy government department run by plebs with no sense of urgency. In the meantime we are left sitting around dreaming of getting our hands on our cars. |

As I read the DVLA guidance notes they say as a reult of the changes, a new car can be driven for 14 days without displaying tax while waiting for it to arrive in the post. If it doesn't arrived within 8 days a post office will be authorised to issue a duplicate. What am I missing? I can't see how this delays things as the dealer still does the registering, just not the printing. I can't understand why this is a big deal for some dealers yet a non-issue for others. |
