my car has been of road since may 2008, tax is out since may 2008 and nct gone since april 2008,, now which do i have to get first????

the tax I'd say! you'll get past a checkpoint with an NCT booking.

you don't need NCT to get tax
you don't need tax to get NCT

I'd worry more about the tax.
(last time I checked!)

Tax.
You dont need an NCT to get your car taxed.

i have a suspicion that you need to get the tax on the car before they will NCT it for you.

a mate of mine needs to have his tax changed on his jeep before they DEO it for him.

other way around, they won't tax it without a DOE.

no seriously

he sent to DOE it and he was told that his isuzu (sp?) jeep was taxed as a commerical jeep with a cabin, but they wouldnt doe it for him until he changed it over to a commercial 5 seater or something along those lines.
tax is jumping from like 200 a year up to 1100 a year.

looks exactly like http://images.autoexposure.co.uk/AETA33418/AETV62039688_1b.jpg
anyone else hear of this problem actually ?

Vehicle in the picture is a Mitsubishi L200 double cab. it's possible to tax these as wither a passenger vehicle or as a crewcab.
You can change the tax class on these from passenger to commercial handy enough.

For a normal car they'll do either without the other. You'll get it taxed quicker than you'll get it NCTd though!

nct/tax which one first????
