Which is why the DVLA need a good kicking for inconsistency ...

I know of a coil-converted 109 chassis shortened to 88 with a V8 and RR transmission - he has had it inspected and still it is tax exempt on the original 109 plate ...

I can also point at more than one hybrid (at least one from a tax-exempt RR) with original plates ...

Not arguing right or wrong but, in my book, whatever the rules are they should be consistently applied and published!

I've been after a copy for ages - the only source I found *was* somewhere like the Stationery Office but in exchange for some ridiculous number of oil-encrusted pound notes ... and that was without all the amendments!

Thanks Austin. Yes, the impact was entirely on the wing. Mrs B was driving, of course. I was CoC for the day, and I had TOLD her the way between the trees, I even drove it myself the day before to prove it was possible in a road-going 90. But she had the Club Chairman as passenger, and when he sent her a different way, then said "push past that tree, it'll give way" she did as she was told. It was an interesting drive home, with "one eye on the pot and the other up the chimney".

The track rod has been bent to spaghetti on several other occasions, however...

looks good but their 'subscription' is basically the same price as the full article - bit of a cheek really.

online shop declined to work this evening, too. crashed mozilla.

meanwhile, the sub thing... you get a new CD with the updated stuff on, so in other words, basically a new copy, so fair enough, plus you can access the online thing and hunt updates yerself during the year.

can't remember why I didn't renew it this year, forgot or skint most likely.

's in adobe PDF format, so quite good, and moderatly well indexed etc.
