  8. If using a flatbed will cost you more than the price of 1 month's road tax, re-tax the Land Rover, tow on a pole or "A" frame (within the law), when at the garage, SORN again and reclaim the 11 month's tax.
  9. From the RAC (https://www.rac.co.uk/drive/advice/legal/what-does-sorn-mean/ ) Can I drive my car with a SORN to a garage for an MOT? Yes, you will be able to drive the car to a garage for an MOT appointment - even with a SORN in place. However, it's important that the MOT has been booked because if are stopped en route by police and questioned, you can explain the situation and the garage can verify your appointment. Be warned - you can only drive a vehicle with a SORN on a public road to attend a pre-booked MOT, or another testing appointment. In any other circumstances, driving a SORN vehicle on the road risks a maximum fine of £2,500.
  10. Regarding towing with a rope, I practice the following:- Only the minimum distance to a place where it is safe to park the vehicle. Not on a motorway.

  20. Hello Richard, This is not necessarily the only or best way but it does work. If you have any questions about it, I will do my best to answer them. 1. Open new word document and add the topic’s title. 2. Insert page number(if required). 3. Click on the + (MultiQuote) button before the Quote button on each post. This works on more than one page at a time but I haven’t tried it on a topic that runs to 10s of pages. 4. When you have clicked on the + button for all the posts in the topic (or as many as the system allows) click on the “Quote posts” button in the bottom right corner of the screen. All the quoted posts are now in “Reply to this topic...”. 5. Click on “Preview”. 6. Right click anywhere in the quoted posts and then select all. 7. Right click again and copy. 8. Paste into your new document. 9. Delete the "MultiQuote" posts in “Reply to this topic...”. Editing the document. 10. Select all the text. 11. To remove the shading click on the “Shading” button and then “No Color” or White, Background 1” 12. The images will require re-sizing.
