Well after a little bit of fiddling we managed to get Tim's Challenger through SVA.

As Steve said in his post great guys at Norwich who really do all they can to help you get a pass.

Hoping to get an inspection we called at DVLA Ipswich on the way home.

"No chance we only do inspections on a Monday and by appointment"

That means no chance this Monday and the following is a Bank holiday so it's going to be 2 weeks before we get to drive it

Nice, well done.
I don't know why but I like most cars that have 1/2 covered wheels. Strange

Ipswich DVLA are crap mate they messed me about for nearly a month, go to Chelmsford instead, I did, they know what they are doing and you can book an appointment any day. I had my plates in less than a week.

Congrats on pass

It was monday and wednesday when i did mine in january. They were quite efficient for me,.

As your near sudbury i go to chelmsford dvla and do it there.

congratulations

I understand your frustrations with the DVLA met the same stonewall at birmingham and thats literally across the road from VOSA

Just hand delivered my forms to Notts as that is nearest to me with cash in the envelope rather than a cheque to try and speed things up. Hoping with everything crossed to be at Stoneleigh but I think that might be wishful thinking

Thanks for the comments, I think I'll take a trip to Chelmsford Monday and see if we can get any joy there.

Nick,
Why not Norwich?
Steve.


x_flow57 - 26/4/09 at 09:12 PM

Simple answer I never thought of going to Norwich.

Slightly less simple Chelmsford is nearer to us, I think.

Nick


Paperwork submitted to Chelmsford today (Monday), hopefully inspection in the next 3 days. Fingers crossed.
