Bit of a weird one this...
I know someone who owns a car. They've not changed the registered keepers address for 2 house moves, their MOT is out of date by 6 months, and so is their insurance.
Feel like I should do someting, but saying "You need to get it sorted" has fallen on deaf ears.
Suggestions please.
nick the keys and the spares and throw them away?
It's clearly not a lapse in admin. He clearly dose not take the responsibility of driving seriously. No insurance e.t.c increase the probability of hit and run in the event of an accident e.t.c
How close a friend is he? How much influence do you have? Dose he have a partner / family?
Go joy riding in it? they must get pulled soon, plenty of anpr out there now.
Apply to be the registered keep of it yourself from the DVLA and wind them up that the car is now yours (after you've stole the keys) 
No question if they don't have insurance grass them in. If it's a close mate then think along the lines of your doing them a favour.
Shop him and get the police to crush the car.
Shop him....think of the kids... and the baby robins!
shop him - driving with no insurance is not acceptable - he has not updated the registered keeper so as to attempt to avoid being caught for no insurance
Shop him - no excuse for that situation.
How has (s)he managed to avoid ANPR for six months?
They'll get caught when the tax expires as he'll need the other docs to buy tax. If they don't SORN, they'll get caught and by the sounds of it they won't SORN as all the reminders will go elsewhere.
Just contact the police, anpr should spot it if they go driving in it anyway, you wouldn't like it if there was an accident.
Mate or not a mate?
If the latter, then give the plod a ring.

+1 regardless of what type of "mate" he is..
Set it alight. A nice fire is always lovely.
Get some new friends ??
Cheers all, he's a pretty good mate/work colleague.
Whenever I try to bring it up, I get told it's none of my business.
Well, he certainly values your friendship
Turn a blind eye from now on and when he does eventually get nicked, you can always say "I told you so..." in a seriously patronising manner.

Remind him, preferably one to one with no witnesses, that it IS your business if his un-MOT'd vehicle is not road worthy and as a result injures or kills one of your loved ones.
If you've got no tax,insurance or mot and run over a pedestrain/cyclist, the incentive is to flee the scene so you don't get caught rather than help. This is exactly what happened to a friend a few weeks ago. Car drove off leaving them lying in the road. It was only some passers by that came to help. It was all reported to the police who confirmed the lack of tax/insurance.
It is your business. Shop him as it's costing you £30 a year in premium to cover his risk.
scrape his face off with a hammer drill then beat him to death with your penis, its what a real man would do
shop him.
as he's not insured any accident he has be it into another vehicle or into a person won't be covered by him but by the rest of us and higher premiums. if he doesn't care then he should.
it is your business you've tried to do the friendly thing and unless you're happy to stump up the cost of doing it for him there aint owt else you can do.
if it's parked in the company car park so long as it's on public display the coppers can wander on doing a 'spot' check. if they've had a tip off it'd be hard to tell.

Then shop him after you've set fire to his car.
Think I covered it there.

Security in the place I used to work would inform the DVLA if discs were out of date in the company car park.
PM me his number plate and where you work. I'll shop him. 
There's a DVLA website where you can report untaxed cars without giving your name IIRC....
surely
Nuke it from orbit, its the only way to be sure...
Here, scroll down a bit for the link:

If you don't shop him, you're as big a dickhead as he is.
Why is it ok to set fire to it?
Criminal offence, wilful fire raising..you'd get cell next to each other.
As Dangriff says really! There is only 1 reason why someone would leave "previous keeper only" details adn that is they are up to something dodgy, add in the no MOT and they clearly are up to something very dodgy. As already mentioned this is shooting your (and our)insurance premiums up, un insured drivers get away with murder, and the Motor Insurance Bureau stump up (hence our higher policies). No MOT .. mmm dodgy AGAIN!
What police force are you? Either crime stoppers or ring the local police and tell them you want to remain anonymous, again there will be a roads policing intelligence department who will receive this information then one day catch up out (hopefully).
If he knocks someone down as his car is fecked becuase he hasn't had an MOT..how would you feel then?
Stop wasting your time on STW and report it.
Ps you'd be quick to get on STW and moan and bit** if you got hit by an uninsured driver with no MOT, so this is no different.
it's none of your business.
