Does anyone know how long it takes the DVLA to turn around applications for age related numbers?  I wrote to them before Christmas and haven't heard anything yet.  Slightly worried because I included my dating letter from Honda and they cost money.

JamesH:
Was it a new registration of an import? I always photocopy any original documents I send and use Royal Mail special delivery..

Chris400F:
I did this early last year to get the DVLA records corrected as part of which an age-related number is issued - my 1977 bike was registered in 1981, year of manufacture also recorded as 1981.
The covering letter I sent was dated 6th Feb, their reply letter was dated 11th March, so a bit over a month in my case.
I don't know whether that is a typical timescale but it is an example.
With Christmas / New Year thrown in to the equation I suspect it may take a bit longer.
Not sure whether you could contact them to enquire about progress.

florence:
thanks, that is re-assuring.

Not an import, just sat in the showroom for two years so not registered until 1976, by which time everyone was sensibly buying 550s instead.

mike the bike:
Not long I hope, I've sent off my V5 to have the taxation class changed.
