Got my V11 today to renew my vehicle tax. In small print it tells me when mot is due, 1/1/16. As vehicle was first registered in Germany 15/7/13 I expected mot to be 15/7/16. DVSA tell me if they cant confirm date of first registration in germany then it is 3 years from when vehicle is built, so built in 2012 plus 3 years is 1/1/16.
On british registration, the german log book, showing date of first german registration, was sent to DVLA and they kept it. V5 shows date of first registration as 15/7/13 but thats not what is on the system for mot. Have spoken to DVLA ( they are the ones that update the info) and they have requested email which I have sent. Worst case is I get mot 7 months before its due.......
So if you have an import under 3 years old look at that V11 tax reminder.
