stu - tell him that he has to remove the car himself, and then because he was been a twat with you, ring the police and tell them that theres an uninsured, untaxed car about to be driven away from xxxxx location, and the posibility that it has no MOT aswell since there is no tax or insurence

that'll fuck em

Sounds like you have got him by the balls there Stu.

Say you'll pay the fine but you will have to charge him for bringing in an untaxed car for exactly the same amount!

I hate people with nice cars who get by not paying for insurance or tax.

Alternatively, he is waiting for all the work to be finished before he taxes and insures the car.... .

What that doesn't explain is, how he drove it to Stu's and how he was going to drive it back from Stus .

sounds like an idiot to me, just leave the car for him to recover, he'll have fun at the station when he pays the fine and is then asked to produce his mot and insurance documents

not the norm, but i'm sure if he refuses to pay you...............you could suggest that you tell the police to check him when he collects it..............i'm sure all bills will be paid then

what a nobber

Its one thing to go out and buy a cossie but you gota be able to pay the upkeep on cars like this as well and Tax and Insurance are just two of a big list of things.
Hope he gives you an apology Stu for going off on one as its not your fault he has not paid his dues.

i know mate, it was a joke!

but leaving a car uninsured knowing full well that stu was going out in it to map it isn't rite either as stu even though probably is insured on anycar wouldn't be insured on this one as the car hes driving needs to be insured.

No, thankfully i pay £6500.00 per year so Kenny and I are covered fully comp for any vehicle up to 1 million sterling, period. Not the point however, as this chap may kill someone on his way home
