have a rather long discussion at shrewsbury DVLA on the way home, I didn't fit any of their boxes not a kit not been rebuit not been radically altered...I asked half adozen times if they would like to come outside an have a look I was assured they did not need to do that ...... got a letter today asking to take it to them to have a look.

Sadly they hold all the aces. You need them more than they need you. What a bunch of numpties. Were they trained in Carlisle by any chance?


plantman - 15/3/13 at 09:36 PM

I doubt they were trained at all

Nice one!

Be patient with DVLA, some of them are just numptys, it'snot their fault they're numptys and there's not a lot you can do to change then. Personally I had no problems at all when registering mine at Manchester but just weeks later the personel changed and others had mega delays.

You'll be on the road this summer Getting into Stoneleigh for free is the next landmark!

Congratulations. Hopefully mine will be iva'd later this year. Really not looking forward to dealing with dvla though.
