thanks for the help.. the cars been sorn since november so its not as if its following on.. i just rang the dvla and although it is taxed with them they say that its still an offence if the police were to pull me as not displaying the disk... i only thought as its been nice out id give the cossie a run but looks like ill be going in the civic... at least i know ill make it their and back without breaking down now i guess..
cheers
