The jurys still out on that one Ian, maybe I should have stuck with the original plan of a Bullnose, ill see how it goes when its taxed and on the road, id imagine DVLA will take another 3-4 weeks to give it a reg etc so hopefully on the road by April.

I think so yes, they send me a letter once they have assigned me a reg so I can get plates made up, then they will send me 3-4 weeks later the MOT with the new reg on and a logbook, once ive got all that I can tax it :blah: :blah:
