LemonGuy Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 If you know what car you're buying a week in advance can't you insure it for when you're going to pick it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gage Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Legally police can sieze your car there and then if they find out your driving your car on road, which can easily be done by an onboard computer on a tradffic police vehicle that automatically checks every license plate it goes by on the MID (motor insurance database)but in most cases police will let u off or give u a produceras for parking it, u only need a valid tax disc to park your car on road, if not u need to declare it SORN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
