The MoT on our UK car runs out in 10 days....unforseen circumstances meant we had to stay longer than planned.....read many forums, opinions, advice....
From "get an ITV and drive back with a pre-booked MOT test in UK on arrival," to "have car transported there and back by specialized service..."

Do you have any further advice on legalities of driving back with tax disk expired? How many days grace period would we have?

Thanks for any further information!

Tora. I think there's either a lack of knowledge amongst CPS or possibly that they're not bothered about prosecuting the no insurance offence (when there's no licence) because they know there's an insurer behind the scenes to pick up any tab. Also, the 'offender' will have at least paid for insurance. Although many years ago, I was involved in contributing to the RTA 1988 and it was our intention that this would allow prosecution of no insurance when there was no licence. It may also be (I not sure) that the insurer will have to go through the process of voiding the policy ab initio for the prosecution to be sustained.
