DVLA DOWNTIME THIS WEEKEND.

DVLA has announced that from 3pm on Friday to 6am on Monday thier service will be down for maintenance... this means that anyone who will purchase a vehicle won't be able to legally drive it on a public road.

A statement on the DVLA website said: “This means you will not be able to tax your vehicle online, by phone or at the Post Office. “Vehicle tax is for the whole month, so if your tax will expire at the end of this month you’ll still have time to tax your car when the service is back to normal on Monday morning. “Remember, it’s against the law to drive an untaxed vehicle on the road. “If you buy a car during this weekend you won’t be able to tax it until 6am on Monday 20 August.” Hope you haven't had your MOT booked for this weekend to tax your vehicle afterwards :)
