  • I'm struggling again

    Well Friday I took all the relevent info to register my car to the local DVLA office, I had already rung Swansea to make sure that the email I have from ford Australia would be enough to verify the cars age, and they had said yes!

    But

    No the email is no good It needs to be on headed paper, will I ever get it sorted lol

    Anyone else had experience of this?

    Just use a UK log book on it as the DVLA are red tape homos and you'll be back and forth for 6 months !!!!

        That's very true - you don't always hear what goes on behind the scenes.

            Hi Mike, Tried to get a repair kit for your carb but it's a no go I am afraid sir. Can do you a new twin choke for it though.
