I would agree with Tobias. It shouldn’t be a problem as long as you get it taxed / tested as soon as you can and you have some sort of valid insurance. A good few years ago now I drove a very battered VW Kombi back from West Africa over 6 months late on Tax and MOT. Dover customs just laughed at me, shook their heads in disbelief and let me out with out a problem. On the 300+ mile journey back home I got stopped 6 times by traffic police (No exhaust, hand stitched tyres, cracked windscreen and bodywork held together with wire ties etc) and after hearing the story of the trip and having a look at our passports I only managed a single 14 day “fix it” notice and document producer. On retrospect I think policeman No. 4 was just worried that I would carry on driving around in it once back here!
