"Actually you don't even need to do a SORN and then re-tax, you just re-tax it again using your Reg and V5 ref online."

Epic tip. I have just taxed all 3 EV's up to Oct 24 :)

Yes until early March because if you re-tax it before its due, the date always goes back to the 1st of the month so there is no point waiting until 31st March 2025 as the tax will still expire 1st March 2026.

But it still gets you up to 11 months extra at the zero rate. :xx:
