One of the rear reflectors fell off after the examiner had done his "gentle " drive around, luckily he didn't notice.

Nothing on mine fell of, at least as far as I can see. Should get my V55/4 in the post today and it might be interesting to compare Stu's fast-track  registration to my "laid back do it by post and see what happens  " registration.

Just had the inspection. Would be picking up documents friday if I wasn't going to Goodwood, so have to wait til monday before being legal. Must say the local DVLA office have been very helpful, not at all what I was expecting. Stu.

I am a nice man, Mr Jigsaw! I love puppies and little kittens as well, but only with lots of ketchup.

Just got back from Exeter DVLA with a new tax disc and a pair of number plates  . Could have gone last friday but had tickets for Goodwood. Now to fix all the little knocks and creaks. Stu.

Left all the forms with DVLA Sidcup on Monday with £55 registration fee, with their promise to contact me when an inspector is in the area. Nobody available to check there and then - nobody until tomorrow (thursday) so I am not holding my breath. Could not work out what tax group was applicable so settled on Historic as donor and almost all parts from K reg Marina. Let's wait and see what the inspector says! And somebody has hit the car while it has been parked outside my house on a trailer. Fortunately only the rear fog light lense is broken - new one in the post so should be pristine again by the time the inspector arrives.

That's bad luck, it being hit whilst on a trailer. We ended up with a Q plate, but with no V55 donor, couldn't expect much else.

We had our inspection on a Wednesday afternoon, the paperwork was done and we could have picked up the certificate allowing us to have the plates made Friday afternoon. That was a month ago, still waiting for it to stopraining here  Stu

Last part of the jigsaw finally in place. Call from DVLA - Number plate authorisation certificate - all my receipts back - tax disc - number plates made on the way home - tax disc holder bought - drive the car out tomorrow, or maybe tonight....... At least I got the age related number that I was aiming for.

Eeeerm it is no different to the last lot I took and the same as the ones in the Breed! Would you like one of me with a silly grin on my face pointing at the number plates and waving the Ministers Certificate over my head?
