All my toys are now in bed and sorned

Must be making too much money Mark, only costs the price of a stamp and you'll get nearly ?30 back if you got is sent today, not a bad return, especially if you aren't using her!

SORN'd because i can't justify paying the insurance on it for 3 weeks over christmas.

Otherwise i'd be driving it rain, wind and snow !

SORN at the mo, but mainly as its not running yet. Once it is, it'll be MOT-ed and then taxed, and the run in whatever weather.

Mine will be SORN'd from the 1st December, but hasn't really been driven since the end of Sept.

The Manta and Asconas have been SORN'd since the end of Sept, and will be taxed in April again, an expensive month!!!

Just taken mine off Sorn for the first time in 2 years and taxed it today, after just a few miles driving one of the coolant hoses splits and pisses out the whole lot, back in the garage it goes!

Considering it.

Not that its a show car or anything but id rather get my corsa finished , on the road , then sold. That way the novas ready for some new bits , like a LET.

And the tax is up soon anyway.

TBH, mines only SORN'ed as its a stolen recovery and its been in the process of its rebuild since around Sept. Prior to that its was SORN'ed from Dec 06 to May 07 for its engine conversion and other work.

Mine was just simply too rusty & me too skint since 2004.

The turbo engine came out for a new shortblock & it never went back in.

During that time I poked & prodded everyting far too much & ended up having to weld a new back end on.

The 888 is being SORN'd tonight for the winter, ain't got a garage for it this year tho :(
Had the Sport 4 years and its always been SORN'd. Maybe next year it will get treated to some tax.

Mines on a rolling yearly SORN. It will probably never be taxed again EVAR! lol

Mines been sorned a couple of months, it's a pity I can't get a commision free return on my insurance as easy:cry: . I think I'll have to pay for insurance on a day usage next year as paying ?500 for around 10 outings is a bit steep. Or does anyone know of any 6 monthly insurance schemes?
