    You are liable from the day you buy it (as per date filled in on logbook you send to shannon)

    Get the seller to sign a receipt to you when you pay him/her. Tax will be payable by you only from the first of the month of sale. And March is next week.............

    why would the op need a receipt and what use would it be?

    seller has 21 days from date of sale to declare it off the road if they wish to not drive the car till march

    New owner doesn't have any liability for previously owed tax, only from when you send in the log book changing the registration of ownership.
