At work I've just bought a smart Roadster, its an 03/53 28k miles and is in two bits with 3ft mid section cut out and kept for inspection...... also no chasss plates....

The nice person that owned it got caught 3 times with no tax or insurance on a car that would retail for circa £ 6,000....

And it got slapped with with a destruction order :lol:

The best bit.....

RFL on this car is £75..... hahaha £75 what a tosser

Insurance circa £ 250 for a 30yr old

I've been offered another car with a destruction order too.... about £3k worth of smart Fortwo....

Report em, at least in Essex they are "destruction ordering" them! and especially if you see a smart or Fourtrak or Terracan with Leather :wink:

It REALLY hacks me off when people make this assumption, TAX means you have to have these items but it doesnt mean you dont have them. My landlords been on at me over this re my donor car and was promply shot down in flames. Un untill a few weeks ago this car was insured and MOTed but not taxed.

In your case, yes you did right as its on a public road but careful what assumptions you make.

The way the police have always told me no tax then the insurance is void if the vehicle is being used every day on a public highway.
So this vehicle has no tax then it also has no valid insurance.
The tax ran out 01 01 07.
Why should I try to comply with the law of this country as a pensioner on less than £75 a week . 60% of that 75 being paid back in taxes of various kinds.

Let me also explain that this vehicle is a daily driver. Also most times that the vehicle is being parked the people getting out of the vehicle are not capable of walking in a straight line.


Perhaps you can also explain to me why this vehicle will have to pass a ANPR  camera which ever way it leaves my street and nothing seems to be done about it.

Next week I have to find £180 for a years tax on my Defender. Six months of which the car will not be in the UK.

Fudge - Have you got any pics? I'm a roadster driver and a member of several smart forums - would be amusing to post as a new owner!

Bulli:
i think you did the right thing to report him but to be frank i think you were daft to confront him. Its not worth the risk tbh. No disrespect but you are asking for trouble and if his car is taken away and destroyed i would make sure he doesnt find where you live.
there are too many nutters out there nowadays.

Evilgoat:
Fudge, you have PM
