waiting times for the dvla v5

<< < (2/2)

nairb:
Nearly 5 weeks and counting........ Dare I hope for success?.  It might be here this month.

nairb:
The new V5C has arrived for the cb360.  6 weeks in all.  Just the logbook nothing else returned.  The system does work.  Now to get the plate made.  And some summer miles done in the country lanes.

Laverda Dave:
That's good news, hopefully they have cleared the backlog. I began the process yesterday on the Z400J after getting the MOT on Thursday. The single day insurance cost £52 to do a four Mike round trip to the MOT station! I was tempted to push it there but the heat, the weight of it and having a very dodgy ankle at the moment meant the riding it there was the best option. I'll see how long the process takes, hopefully I'll get some summer miles in.

nairb:
And today (17th) the rest of the paperwork was returned along with a letter from the dvla saying the application has been successful.  The v5c had arrived 7 days ago.
Anyway it seems that the paperwork IS returned in the end.
All good stuff.  Now hopefully the number plate will arrive promptly from Fram   ptoms

Aren't hand painted number plates legal? Buy a small baking tray or find some old metal and a tin of white paint (assuming you have a pre-1980 bike here). No waiting, no need for the V5 to be returned!

...it's somewhere towards the bottom under 'authentic pressed metal'.
