Can I drive my car legally whilst my new tax disc is in the post?
I have paid the road tax for my car online and I will receive it in five working days - can I drive only with reference number until my disc arrives?

Officially, no. But you won't be stopped by an ANPR check because the car is on the system as taxed.
