I saw this a while back.

It's largely stil valid - apart from the 10% duty payable - but I disagree with the idea of driving the car home from the docks.

Despite what DVLA or even the police may say - ultimately, it's down to your insurers whether they will payout in the event of you crashing your car and causing damage to someone else.
Without an MOT - I wouldn't fancy my chances winning this fight. Unless you have trade plates and road risks insurance - I wouldn't take the chance.

I agree Darren, also I feel it is best to get the car 'checked over' before risking the journey home, which for many will be a long way and a first in a LHD car. Good web page all the same !

I believe this site belongs to club member Simon Prince.
