To cut a long story short the local council have towed away my car as some curtain twitcher has reported it as "abandoned"
Now my car was not abandoned it was taxed and MOT'd and its been having work done to it by my mechanic who incidently has been moving it up and down the road whilst working on it, it hasn't been parked illegally its taxed till next month and mot'd till march just not insured surly the council had no right in doing this? We are going to appeal this but has anyone got any suggestions?

You have a case against the council. Were the registration documents in your name at the same address? Seems peculiar they just towed it without attempting to locate you.

Sorry, but if it wasn't insured, then that is reason enough for it to be towed away. A car must have insurance if it's on a public highway, regardless of whether or not it's being used.

If it is on a public street without the proper inspections and updated tag's they can.
