Now that I've got the youtube video working, here's the link again

 

[Guest Ian & Carole]

Love the camera taking a nose dive lucky it fell in the car and not over the side.

 

Well done on the pass.

[Guest peter2b2002]

That's what I get for getting distracted while setting everything up. You have to push a pull a lever to get proper mounting. Forgot to push the button on the suction mount!

So the car is going to be going through a few post IVA/winter changes. If people are interested then I am happy to keep this thread running, thoughts?

[Guest peter2b2002]

Keep going nice to see thing being done

Could change the title to "Chapter Two -- Modifications " & a new post so page numbers start at "1" again.

So 2 weeks on, all the DVLA can tell me is they are having problem retrieving the images, not that the girl who told me that could actually explain what it means!

[colinmoore]

Keep the story coming, I need some inspiration over the winter months!

I'll start part two up as a seperate thread just as soon as I can close this one off with it being registered.

What she means is that their image of a bureaucratic bunch of Civil Servants is false and they are really a caring customer friendly department but they are having trouble retrieving that image .

Case handler called me this morning with a query over the receipt for the kit. I only have a receipt from the person I bought it from and not from the kit manufacturer and this means I can only have a Q plate. This was what I was expecting anyway which I told him and he was happy with so all resolved and now just waiting a call back later today, hopefully to confirm my registration

[theduck]

Registration confirmed, V5 should be with me in next couple of days. First drive out with number plates this weekend!

I had a Q plate on my Jago Jeep. Thought it was great having something that not many other car owners have!

[theduck]

Ok time to round this thread off.

 

Wednesday was exactly 4 years to the day from when I collected the car and so it was fantastic to finally ahve my registration confirmed. The V5 and number plates have arrived today but I've not had chance to take it out due to the poor weather so photos of it on the road will have to wait. The story isnt over though. It isnt even taking a break. I started the post IVA/Winter mods the day I passed IVA, but havent posted about them yet as I have decided they will be going into a new thread. I will be starting that later so will update this post with the link once its up.

 

I just want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been reading this thread, and even more those who have commented and helped along the way. There have certainly been times where this thread was the only thing keeping me motivated, and obstacles over come only by the help of the members off the club, so again, thank you all of you!
