10 Still In The Race, Running (7,7)
Crosswords1 min ago
I have purchased a new car which is now on my driveway, but I haven't driven it so far as there is no valid road tax on it yet. If I buy the tax today, the 27th of July, do I have to pay for the whole month of July? Would I be wiser to wait until 1st August OR does the tax run for 365 days from thr date I first purchase it? If the latter, then I can go ahead and tax it and start driving, so which is it?

Leave it until Aug 1st if you have no plans to use it. I suspect you can buy it now to be valid from 1st August, if you wish, just to make sure you don't forget it.
It should be SORNed at present - make sure it is or you could be in bother.
