Hi All,
Im trading in my car at the weekend for a slightly newer one. Thing is that i have another 8 months left on my car tax.I have heard that i can claim back my remaining 8 months tax somehow! Does anyone know how i go about it? As always ,any advice is most welcome.

cheers
 
Not sure but I think you can only do this if the car was scrapped or destroyed. You need to produce the log book and certificate of destruction.
 
You should try to make a deal with the garage taking in the car - they'll be able to sell the car as "taxed till June 09" which may be attractive to a prospective buyer.
 
You can only re-claim the road tax if the car is scrapped and you must surrender the log book as mentioned.
You cannot get tax back if you are trading in.
