400/4 build. Paused due to other commitments. But starting up again
ComfySofa:
All done...just been down the post office. Got my receipt.....this begs more questions!.....youve all watched and seen whats been done to it....whats a fair price for the value (the insurers will ask) but these days you can get an old nail for 1500 quid of a fully restored one for 8-9k!.... the only saving grace ive got is the mileage on mine is very low... about 6200 i think...
I think all of you would be best place to give it a value...do your worst!!

There, it's that simple.

I do not know if it's our local post office or poorly trained staff at the DVLA but until I sent my V5 with a V10 & Insurance the DVLA twice returned mine with a new V5 but they ignored the section where I had filled in the change of taxation to Historic - I just received a new V5 showing the old taxation class.
Before the regional LVLO's were closed Post Offices did not administer changes of taxation class it had to go to DVLA or a LVLO - my Post Office stamped the V5 & sent it to DVLA but they just ignored the changes.
Be interesting to see if it works for you at the Post Office- best of luck.

Cheers...i did watch him write "Historic" in the box....he did scan the v5 with a barcode scanner first then said "yeah thats fine" so i guess theres a quick check first to see if it can have that status...

DVLA do say on their website take it to the Post Office. DVLA really don't want you to contact them these days, or send anything to them, unless you really have to. 99% of anything to do with motoring is now done either online by yourself or by the Post Office. Even with change of ownership, you now do it on line in less than a minute.
