I know that cars over 4 years old require an NCT - are you unable to tax a car that does not have an NCT cert or is failure to have an NCT a garda offence only.
The reason I ask is for example if I had a car due for NCT in Oct 07 and when renewing the tax in Oct 06 renewed for 9 months and in Aug 07 then taxed it for a year will this mean not having to get an NCT done until Aug 08 instead of Oct 07 ?
