Taxation Class Change

When you're ready to tax it just take your V5c, ask for historic tax and a free tax should be issued, the V5c will be taken and returned up-dated. :smile:


Thanks for that - it might even happen this year!

Post Script

On Thursday I received a very nice letter from DVLA (see below).

Enclosed were Chris's invoice and the two photo's I sent, as well as a prepaid envelope. Perhaps the nice man is hoping for a thank you card?

End of saga.

Mick O'Malley - Congratulations on getting your paperwork sorted out. :cool:

Good luck with the rest of your build, Paul. :)

PS
I sent a thank you card to the nice man at the DVLA who sorted my paperwork out.
( And to be fair he did earn it, given the pig's ear I made of the process. :rolleyes: )

Why not call in for a chat and a cuppa. :tea:

Hammerhead - Congratulations on the V5C update. :cool:

These days, that is all you need to do, there is no inspection required (unless the DVLA asks for one), so it is indeed "Job done".

Cheers, Paul. :)

PS
Would you be able to edit your post to remove the HUGE quoted section?

Do you have any more details on your build, as you should know we like photos. :icon_wink:

Well done on the V5 changes. You made it sound relatively simple, almost as if DVLA have actually got their act together!

I see you used a rather nice Spitfire as a donor, do you have a Spyder, a Cordite or is it a hybrid of the two?

Looking forward to seeing some photos. :)
