Seems to be a grey area as i know that you used to get 14days after the expired date, however my car last had tax in july 2010 so doesn't really count.
cheers
The 5 day exemption for displaying the new tax disc also covers you if you display the SORN, which I assume your car must have been since its had no tax since July as long as you applied for the tax before the SORN expired?
Problem solved if you did
