registration
david451:
Thanks for that folk, job for Monday and another 8 quid for a plate.
My bike is a 1st January 1974 but when I spoke with the planks they said unless I got proof from Honda then they would register it end of jan and I wouldn't get free road tax. I contacted a dealer who contacted Honda japan but it was all on paper and it would take time to source so I went ahead without proof and they registered it 1st jan anyway and I guess my cheque is on the way back to me because its free tax I think.
In fairness the registration had me beat until I saw it next to my other bike and the coin dropped, too much of a rush I guess to get out to play.

Contacted dvla today didn't seem surprised the registration was wrong and from speaking with them didn't really understand what the problem was. Said he would pass it onto the department and it would take about two weeks to issue me with the correct reg but in the meantime I could ride on the number they gave me just destroy the old v5 when the new one comes through he said. Doesn't sound right but I took his name so off I go.
postie delivered another v5 today, thought for a minute they had noticed the mistake and given me the correct one but nope, another v5 with the wrong reg, phew!!!

I had to register my 1949 ford anglia. V5 came back as 1941, they didnt start this model untill 1948. I spent ages trying to get them to correct it and was given a few new v5's but they never did manage to change the year.
Gave up in the end and its new owner now has a car first registered 7 yeats before it could possibly have been made.
Idiots.
