SORN problem

[GMLes]

Hi guy's, due to problems i've been having with the Veccy (Skippy), i have SORN'ed it but kept the tax disc in case the scammer who sold it to me wants to take it back. I did this because i cancelled my own insurance. I have had the car on my mother-in-laws drive but now a mechanic needs to see it (a favour for my father-in-law on a Sunday). The trouble is that he is 7 miles away and has no pick up truck. My mother in law has a suitable insurance policy and the car has a tax disc with time to run (til 08/12). Will she get any problems if she were to drive it to him as i do not want the car seized and destroyed for obvious reasons.

Only way would be trade plates I'm afraid

Thanks Craig, more or less what i thought. Don't want to lose the car just yet or get my mother-in-law in trouble (points and fine).

Not just points and a fine - the car would be siezed if the police stopped her whilst she was en route.

Thanks Rebellion, just as i said at top of post, but that would be my problem as i would then have no car with which to get my money refunded (due to being scammed into buying a scrapper or as good as).

Looks like i'm going to have to sort this another way.Thanks guy's.

you can't drive any car declared as SORN on public highways, but read this: -

as above link you can go to mot -- if the car is insured first.
