Hello to you.  I have done that.   Drove to Santander on ferry and go.    The problem is that in England there are Cameras everywhere and they will note your number plate and a fine on the door step.   So what I would do is that you have insurance.   Get the insurance company to collect from docks and deliver to your home.   Tell them that it has a problem with the Back Axle.  and you can not drive.    That way NO FINE.   I had a guy in a garage that would do the M O T and put on the UK Data Base He charged me £150.00  Once you have the MOT you can TAX car from your mobile online.       Terry

If MOT and tax have expired it's illegal to be on a public highway 

You have to make an appointment for the mot before you go and have the paperwork to show at customs
