SORN questions

[ally-b]

I've been looking to buy a motorcycle again as I now have somewhere to keep one - I had to give them up when I moved to my flat .

My question is : a couple of bikes I've seen have had no tax as they have been stored for a couple of years .

How does it work with SORN ? is it just a case of getting new tax at the P.O. once the reg doc (V5) is changed to my name ? or is it more complicated ?

What if SORN was not done when the tax last ran out ?

Get it MOT'd and taxed, transferred to you and declared back on the road - I think that's it.

This webpage may help you out hopefully.

also found the following:

I am buying a vehicle and the previous keeper has already declared SORN. Do I have to do anything?

Yes. As the new keeper you are required to do one of two things:

· Apply for a tax disc

Or

· Declare SORN from the date of acquisition, as SORN is not transferable.

If you have the log book you can declare it sorn online so saving standing in a queue of old folk smelling of pee at the post office.
