Hey guys,

To cut a long story short a friend of mine has offered me her V reg Tigra, it has HGF and no MOT. This means I am unable to tow it. Does anyone have a car trailer in the taunton area and willing to help me out? Obviously I will throw you some cash for your troubles.

The car is located in Staplehay by Trull and my house is in Taunton, it's around 5 miles.

Cheers

Dave

You can rent them for fairly cheap, last time I looked it was ~£50 for a day.

Yup, if the wheels are on the road it has to be MOTed, Taxed and Insured.
I beleive the exception would be of course if you were travelling to an MOT test centre.

I would check with the police I asked a few years ago and was told if its under tow then its classed as a trailer??
