hopefully someone can help with this one... I'm trying to sell a car that I havent been using for 3 months, its just been sitting in my garage, tax ran out on 31/10/09. Obviously I didnt retax it at the time and have received a fine from DVLA for not doing so, i must tax it or declare it SORN...can I get short term insurance ( ie 2 weeks, I already have a policy for another vehicle) in order to tax the car, the DVLA lady said as long as the insurance certificate is valid on day i try to tax the car that will suffice...the insurance company is not so sure that temporary car insurance cover will allow me to tax the car....anyone know for definite???

if ur selling it i would just SORN it ,if u know anyone in the motor trade they can tax it for u with trade insurance.
SORN it and let potential buyers know this.
cheers guys, i will be selling it privately so only issue with SORN is people will not be legally able to test drive the car

I bought a car recently that had a 7 day driveaway insurance and
that was enough to let me tax the car. also I think you can get temp insurance aas short as one month at tempcover.com, although the last time I checked this it seemed quite expensive for me anyway.
