Look out SVA here we come
Have just rung the local DVLA at portsmouth, and the lady sounded suprisingly welsh. Have to now apply in writing to them for a chassis number, and
they are also sending out the relevent forms and info regarding the SVA test.
I will keep you posted.

Not surprising - every time you ring a DVLA centre you get diverted to Swansea...

Theres now a guy, who says hes been transferred from Brighton VRO to sort it out

the leeds branch people sound very welsh aswell - maybe they have filters on the fonelines that give a tinge of welsh and remove all traces of local
dialect and accent?

Don't you have a local VRO office in Portsmouth? if so you get much better and quicker service from the counter but avoid the lunchtime rush.
My local office had a 'kit car'/SVA specialist who could not have been more helpful. Issued the Chassis number by return post and after
getting the SVA I got an inspection the next day because I was dealing with him face to face.
Another thing when I rang the local VRO and got put thru to Swansea they said I needed a MOT for registration the Local VRO man said that 'was
rubbish' and didn't need one

I reckon its because the welsh sound a little bit simple, so when they make a mistake you feel sorry for them rather than angry at them
No offence to any dragon-land dwellers

At least you guys know where you are diverted to. We landed up with a mortgage run by some nice people in Bombay. Six phone calls later they still had
a problem that the couldnt sort.
Can I have one life policy and a balti with extra rice and a nan bread please.
We remortgaged and now Im building my seven. But we speak to newcastle in stead of MOMBAY
