    Hi guys

    Have my NCT 5th August, tax is also out at start of August.
    If I dont tax the car before the 5th will it be an automatic fail?

    As far as I can remember the car needs to be in tax. Sure it was on here before. No doubt one of the regulars will be in to either confirm or correct.

    You can NCT an untaxed car, I did it last month.

    My car tax was out by 18 months and had no problem going for test and re-test!

    Mad that you can NCT an untaxed car when it's illegal to drive it to the centre and back without valid tax !

    That's because you used to need the NCT to tax.

    Thats mad cause its a 04 Celica and its the first time im NCT'ing it since i got it in the north in April 08.. I could always tax it even though it technically should have been NCT'd in Jan 08.
    Another mad thing is when I Nct it in August its gona be due again in January.

    What would happen if i didnt NCT it till Jan???

    What about untaxed cars that are legally brought to the NCT by means other than driving ;)

    No you don't - that was done away with, years ago, due to NCT strike.

    This happened to me with car no.1 It bloomin' didn't happen with car no.2 You can either wait a while....slightly dodgy, or, as suggested by the (very) nice lady in the NCT centre.........book it now.........for Jan. That way, if you're stopped, you've got a date, just waiting to go.
