Sorry to here that paul,building the car was the easy part I did have to make lots of phone calls to get an inspection date as the dvla lost the paperwork the first time luck i copy all of my doc,s but the buck stops with the dvla!!!

Be polite but very firm with DVLA eventually you will get there but oh so frustrating especially when they are cocking up as they invariably do!

It's the lack of consistency between DVLA local offices that never ceases to amaze me. For my part, Pompey DVLA office were quite reasonable to deal with (once I managed to get a direct number for the guy who was dealing with it).

From the tales on the forum it seems it's a lottery for most people

They say all kinds of stuff at the inspection, I wouldn't take any of it too seriously. My inspector said I'd pay motorbike road tax as it's a BEC...... To be fair, they're only there to check a few numbers....
