Brand New Car and IVTM
Hi if anyone can help would be great.
Bought a brand new car from an official dealership and picked up the car 2 days ago once the registration plate was issued and given the temporary registration form by the dealer for this brand new car. I obtained insurance before i drove it off and have to go back to the dealer to pick up the full registration when it arrives in a week or so. I have now just read conflicting advice on Road Tax online and then when I contacted SUMA the advice was not clear either. They said at registration tax would have been paid for period but then said it could only be paid with permanent documents which will take 2 weeks - So does anyone know if the registration process for a brand new car means that the Road Tax is covered - the dealer manager who speaks English is off until.next week? Surely when they let you drive off in a brand new car on its first ever journey / register the tax would have to be covered ? It is currently sat all shiny and new on the drive and I am looking at it thinking my luck I'll be stopped and impounded by police if I dare go out. Any help hugely appreciated!
