Can I claim the car as mine?
The car has been on my driveway a month now and its tax has run out. Ive left a note on the car requesting its removal from the owner and it keeps being ignored and taken off. It has been causing an inconvenience to me as its on my land and the council wont move it because its on private property. I want to know if I can keep it?

 

Optional Information:
1996 Peugeot 206

Already Tried:

I'm going to bow out on this one I would suggest placing your question in the legal category.

In the US most states have abandon vehicle lean laws however I know nothing about the laws in the UK.
