So its been 17 days since the death of the tax disc, over the next 12 months more and more cars will lose that little round disc from their windscreens and while a local police team have come up with an excellent idea to fill that empty space (see more on that here) we still thought it would be helpful to give you a guide on how you can apply for your road tax online.

Below is a short 3 minute video of my experaince using the new system for my tuition car.

Hopefully that video was quite straight forward.

Its worth noting that you can still buy your tax from the post office as before but now with the direct debit option it makes things much easier and will certainly save you a trip.

More information on the road tax changes can be found here on the gov.uk website.
