    They can take you car off you if its more than 3 months out...

    presuming it's actually taxed there won't be a problem , no points for it...

    You're not just driving all the way to Cork for a tax disk that could be posted for the paltry sum of 55 cent, are you ?

    No need to worry. If you do get stopped, they just say that you've to show your tax disc in your local garda station within ten days. they won't give you points. I've driven without tax loads of times (and got caught) and never had a bother. They worry more about NCT and insurance.

    Reduced to 2 months in 2006.

    OP: Can you not just have someone at the Cork address post the disc on to Dublin?
