I visited the DVLA in Northampton with a pile of paperwork today. Certificate of Newness, Original Invoice, IVA Pass Certificate, V55 form, Assembly Form (forgotten the correct name for it but it's a DVLA form listing the manufacturer of the major components), Driving License (photo ID), Medical card (address ID), Insurance Certificate and a cheque for tax and registration fee (£245 - £190 tax and £55 first registration fee).
I swapped all that for a compliments slip with a DVLA stamp on it - I'm a little worried about this... Within 48 hours, I'm supposed to get a call from someone telling me whether I need to present my car for inspection. I blew £540 on my IVA certificate and this still isn't enough and I'm a bit miffed by this. Even the two girls at the DVLA couldn't tell me why I might have to re-present my car.
I hope I'll have a registration mark soon after that - which means I can get a tax disc, register my insurance fully and finally get on the road! And I can't wait!
As a footnote, my Mum and Dad have generously given me a private plate for my car as a Xmas pressie. Thank you very much and I love you loads.
