    Doesn't matter. You can get them in any order you want.

    I won't be refused taxing the car without NCT documentation then. Thought I needed that.

    Seems like a good plan. Then no need to tax it till roadworthy.

    Well it is roadworthy but you know what I mean.

    You'll most probably have to back tax it though from the day you brought it after the nct is done?

    Yes I understand that. I won't have to pay six months back tax though will I?

    No only from the date it was transfered into your name.
