Nevermind being late with the tax disc - what about overdue MOTs?
I was a week overdue with my MOT for the Discovery and only noticed because I pulled the file out to see how long I had before the MOT ran out, when I realised I had minus 8 days!
Also, some years ago I went to see a Morris Minor 1956 split screen that was advertised with 3 months MOT and asked to see the documents. Bearing in mind that the car was still being used, I was amused to see that the MOT was in fact 3 months overdue! I didn't buy the car as it was also overpriced and well butchered. It's character had been spoilt by shoddy conversions and bodged restorations.
Furhtermore the garage I spoke to today had a customer that was 9 months overdue with his MOT!
Can anyone beat this, or are there any similarly interesting stories out there?

Early 80s bought a 3 year old Opel Ascona (cracking motor) off my Father. After about 6 months when the rent ran out I asked him for the MOT cert so I could re tax it.
"What MOT is that son?
Whoops!
