just an update.... i got the owner to tax it and changed my insurance so was fully legal to drive it home. so i am now the proud owner of a saab 3.0l tid vector. it is immaculate inside and out, and loaded with toys. never owned a saab before but well chuffed with it. very powerful! and the fuel gauge barely moved on my 80 mile trip back home.
if i can ever figure out how to upload photos i will do.

Don't forget to SORN and cash in the tax on the car you just moved the insurance off.. otherwise you might get fined for that, too (Can't have a car taxed but uninsured anymore)

the bmw is sitting off road in my driveway, the tax on it runs out end of feb so keeping it on as an incentive to any potential buyer

Here's hoping they don't catch you, then.. otherwise:

If a vehicle does not have insurance, the registered keeper could:
receive a fixed penalty of £100
have their vehicle wheel-clamped, impounded, or destroyed
face a court prosecution, with a possible maximum fine of £1000

to upload pics there is some topics on it in the help section but basically i opened an account on photobucket and up load my pics there from my pc then when you view your album theres a side bar that says share click the direct link i think you can do a test in the test zone to see if it works ........i dare say some of the old timmers here know a better way
