DVLA chassis number!!!!
ARGH..... how long does it take dvla to give you a chassis number. I asked a couple of weeks ago and still nothing. Im trying to get it sorted so I
can apply for a SVA and not have to go through IVA but at the moment its not looking promising.....

did you send the letter to your local office? What i did was propose a chassis number in a letter and ask them to confirm in writing that it was
acceptable.
To speed things up I enclosed a stamped addressed envelope etc and got a reply in two days.
Good luck

That number is invalid as it is longer than 17 digits!
Or was that 21? or 9?
Oh are you allowed O or 0

I hope you applied for the SVA already as the cut off was on the 28th Feb 2009 to have your app in by! Any app after this date is to go for IVA I am
affraid.

I wrote to my local office. (New Years Day) Ten days later and no response i called them, got Swansea, who took all my details etc and local office
rang within two hours.
Local office advised they had not got the letter, but i was to fill out V627/1 and return that.
About 7 days later i rang Swansea again, to get a call back. Local office rang to advise they was dealing with my request, and i would get a call,
later that week.
Following Monday got a call from inspector who wished to see car that day, which he did, but he was under the impression he was seeing a complete
ready for road car, but took at details and filled out his version of V627/1.
On Monday this week got a call from local office to ask how long until I was ready for the road so they could register it. When i said a rough time
they said oh thats ok will send you a chassis number.
Its arrived but its hand written so can not tell if i have O's or zero's. Rang the girl dealing with it and she is not in until
Monday.
So all in all i have waited just over 3 months, but the local office is realy happy, knowledgable and approachable.
