Sorry...

... for the boring question.

So, suppose I was to buy another car which I plan to keep SORN. What is the best way to get it home legally in terms of tax?

I have read all the info online and it appears that to be completely above board I would have to buy the car, call the DVLA and tax it, drive it home and then declare it SORN as soon as I get back in the hope I get a tax refund.

My questions are:

If I do this, how much of the tax am I likely to get back? Do they take a cut or have an administrative type charge?

Seems a bit overkill for just one journey, was hoping somebody who knows a bit more about the new rules could suggest a simpler way of doing it legally.

Muchas gracias.
