Oh!^[1] Looks like if I use the handy-dandy V11 form that arrived a week or two back, I might not need to get the MOT before I tax it after all.

This strikes me simultaneously as a Good Thing (because people will not be pressured into rushing their MOTs, or letting their tax lapse in order to get their vehicle roadworthy) and Phenomenally Stupid (because people can let their MOT lapse and still be taxed). I guess it's the insurance that's the safety valve in this situation, you still need to be MOT'd to be insured, and you need to be insured to be taxed.

Still, that takes the pressure off me a little.

EDIT: No, never mind, I am a fool.
