It will be quicker for you if you report it as abandoned.
Dvla won't come out to one vehicle. They go to different areas in any one particular day and blitz that area. By all means report it to them as well though as its more than 62 days out of tax.
As for insurance if your using Askmid you should only be checking your own vehicle.
Didn't you have to tick a little box to say it was your vehicle?

It has to be on private property as far as I'm aware. I have an additional parking space that I bought when we moved to our current house that abuts to the public road. My son kept his MGF, his ''project'' MGF there for about six months. No tax or MoT but he kept the insurance going, declared SORN. Thankfully the ''project'' landed up on a pick up truck heading towards the scrappies.

Yeah that’s pretty much it although there’s grey areas as well, say you had a shared private drive with your neighbours and you put an old banger on it, it could still be took by your local council and treated as abandoned.

Didn't know that. The additional parking space is shared by a neighbour in so much that there is no wall of fence between the concrete plinths. I bought ours because the wife kept her business van on it. Thankfully I must have understanding neighbours. I've told my son no more projects.

As promised about a month ago a few posts up, I said I'd take a photo of some cars that are on the grass, right against the side of a road a couple of miles from me, to get your thoughts......

                                                                               

I think we can all take a wild guess these are not Tax'd, MOT'd or Insured.

Why would someone bother?

We had a very similar issue. The verge outside our house is between the pavement and the road, and is actually a public bridleway. Car was parked on it blocking our easement to our garage.

We asked the owner to move it and he refused, so we reported it to the council. They took it away on a truck, as it was out of tax, MOT etc. and hadn't been SORN 'd either.

Turned out he lived a couple of miles away and just didn't have space for it at home.  A total merchant banker, of course.

I thought that would be a criminal offence.
