You need proof you have the new disc. Thats all. As long as its got a nre tax disc, the police can check, even if its not in ya car. The ANPR cameras are good for that. I got caught, but had my reference number form my online purchase.

thats the main reason im a bit nervous i always do it online, but If im honest ive been a bit undecided whether to tax it as for the amount of miles i do i dont think its worth it and ?135 to do about 2500 miles is a lot of money
