Has it been SORN'd before, or when was it last taxed? The reason I ask is I have a couple of SOBs that haven't been taxed in a loooooong time, that I never have to SORN. I'm not sure what the cutoff date is though. > > [1] http://www.mygaragemanager.com/ Is this the thing you posted a while ago, that was a Windows application before? -- /Simon

A Windows app before what? It was, is, and will always be a Windows app. The guy who produces it is a Windows developer. -- Champ We declare that the splendor of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed.

You could try checking the vehicle status here... http://www.taxdisc.direct.gov.uk/EvlPortalApp/application?origin=vehicleEnquiry_en.jsp&event=bea.portal.framework.internal.refresh&pageid=Home Click on "vehicle enquiry", enter the details and see what comes up. My old Honda that has been off the road for years, and before all this SORN stuff started, is shown as "unlicensed". I think if your turbo doesn't show SORN you shouldn't need to do any more...if it does you'll need to contact them. Regards Ross |
