If bought in advance, it does not come into effect until the 1st day of the following month and should not be displayed before then.

I said renewal because bluebabe said she/he "has cover to date." It was my understanding that unless it was a renewal disc, a disc was backdated to the beginning of the month. Checking the DVLA site , it does say a disc cannot be bought more than two days in advance of it starting if there's more than a month's break. If it can't be dispalyed until it starts, why is that then?
