Hi and thanks for reading. I bought my lad a discovery mk1 hoping he would tinker with it. That didnt work out, so I fitted the 3" lift kit, new shocks and mud tyres I got for him and in a nutshell.. its now sat abandoned. hes got his road license now and has no interest in the landy. It gets a run around the field once in a blue moon. anyway I want to sell it but i didnt get round to doing the SORN. Its an MOT fail due to sills and boot lining. I want to sell it but can I sell without SORN or will I get fined and so should just break it and sell the bits? Thanks for reading and yes, I do know I should have SORNed it. Its just been used on the farm land. Cheers.

You might want to read this before you go telling the authorities.

that's what prompted me to ask the question in here ��
Seems to be a bit of a lottery as to whether they do anything about it or not. I have had personal experience of it. A few years ago my stepson sold his car, which had been sitting on the drive unused for about six months as he couldn't afford to run it, and a couple of months later was being chased by a debt company for the back tax as he'd forgotten to SORN it. Needless to say, I ended up paying for it.
I broke a D1 just before moving house, in the move i forgot to tell the DVLA, but as we moved house i assume if they sent any reminders they never got to me... 18 months later get a debt collector letter saying i owe then a load of money for unpaid tax :/
DVLA don't care, you just have to pay up.
