How do I tax a disabled car when purchasing as this must be done by post?
My son has disabled tax status on his car. Soon we will be part exchanging for another car. How do we arrange the new tax to drive home as disabled status can only be done at a post office? Do we just risk it and sort the following day?

We would not advise driving the vehicle without tax, so we would suggest taxing the vehicle at the time of purchase online so you are legal to drive the car on the public road and then sending the required documents off to receive the exemption. If you apply to pay by direct debit the most you will be charged will be a single month of VED.
