It's just awkward to do though. Would day insurance work?

Is this so you can legally park it up on the road?

It's illegal to have a car taxed without insurance, they will send you a fine out pretty sharpish as well

Who did you use Baskey?

I did one day insurance when I collected a Corsa once, I couldn't tax on that policy. The dealer had to register the car to him at the DVLA office and tax it this way.

I don't know what company I used, was years ago.
