SORN Rant..

So..
Taxed & Insured all over winter ..
Not really been able to go out with the weather ..

Just started upgrading engine to 2.0 Blacktop ..

Tax is due 1st April ..

So..
lets SORN it over April till engine in & running Tax it May..
Fills online SORN - gets to end - please enter credit card WTF ??

£35 FEE ???

My old Tax disc said £123 - 6 Months which equals roughly £20 per month..

So if I SORN it for the month I will be £15 worse off than Taxing it

I think you're using the wrong site for sorn, as AFAIK it is so free but many blag sites will charge you to do it.

Yep, top right of the page it says 'not affiliated or connected with DVLA or gov.uk'.
