The car needs to be insured - if not if it was knicked or burnt out there'd be no recompense. Yes it should be "sorned" as DVLA will get upset if no tax paid etc. Tyres should be inflated above the normal psi to avoid flat spots occurring. No doubt DVLA could proffer advice. My main thought is that the car should be sold asap as if left in a garage for a longish period it's condition will detoriate, battery will run down etc etc |

Thanks folks, my o.h. won't listen and says to leave things as they are but I will talk to sister's husband and see if he can sort ins etc as suggested. My o.h. is a great one for sticking his head in the sand! I am surprised the old boy hasn't mentioned his car, he was driving the day before the stroke, thank heavens he got back safely and didn't collapse at the wheel. |

You must SORN it or DVLA will come at you for the tax and eventually cancel the registration. Whatever you do leave the handbrake OFF or the drums will stick to the shoes - most Fiestas only have disks at the front. SORN cannot be on the street OR in a parking lot MUST be in a garage or garden with a physical barrier to the road. |

Thanks Rollo, I don't know why my o.h. doesn't start using it, with the necessary paperwork in place, as it's really restrictive for me when he is visiting the hospital almost every day so I don't have use of a car. I did suggest it before Christmas, when he was at work then going to the hospital I was having to shop in the evenings etc |
