How do i go about getting it changed?
The only thing i can see is changing your surname (due to marriage?)

Can i still drive my car? - am i covered by my insurance?

Can i go ahead and gget it taxed even though my name is wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated. I really want to get driving - i haven't gone out get because i was waiting to get my tax and im just gutted its wrong.

just go to motortax office pay tax and show the mistake, they take your log book and you will receive new with correct name I has the same problem. You can still drive your car and pay road tax.
