now that the reg thing is clarified.. WTF is a "tax disc" in the mini mags i read (pommy of course) you can by tax discs for your mini?
is this something like our rego stickers or?
i have NFI
id RTFM but i can't find the manual, i think the BOFH took it off line, id ask but he'd tell me to STFU and read the FAQ. in the end i decided to FSCK it, and gave up.

Tax Discs == road tax.. just a piece of paper that costs ~£180 a year that you put in your window which gives you the right to use public highways.
