HE PASSED!!! WWAAAAAAAHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Off to get him registered tomorrow!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
:party0007:
 
Went to register him on Monday, received a letter this morning saying that they now want to inspect it next week - why is nothing straightforward?! Just want to go cruising!! :(
 
:lol: probably!
I rang them this afternoon - they've got it in for tomorrow morning now cos my insurance cover note only runs 'til Sat. I did ask if I could drive it to them and she said definitely not - we need to trailer it there. So, after lots of messing about this afternoon :roll: , we've sorted a trailer and it will be going at 10am tomorrow :roll:
 
Sorted - trailered it down to the DVLA this morning for the "inspection" - which consisted of the "inspection officer" looking at the VIN plate and saying "OK, cheers". Papers should be with us tomorrow for number plates to be ordered!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Got registration certificate and papers back today :mrgreen:
Hoping to go find some number plate guy tomorrow :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Great to see this bus coming together and I like the fact you have used the front badge, Good home for the mats. Glad I didn't cut them to make them fit RHD :lol:
