Day-rent buyers would clog up DVLA if they bought 1st Month. They used to be able to take 6 month + days RFL, The calculation was the same "daily rate" as the 6 month rate.

The man in the street either registers/taxes the car on 1st of the month OR loses a part month by registering anytime other than the 1st.

Just to pi** of one forum member:

There's no road fund. It was abolished around 1926.
