Re: Stupid questions about motorised conveyances

Ah well, if you ever get sick of them let me know. My descent into specialist rare Green Oval shite is becoming so pronounced that a boggo Series barely even gets a second glance now.

Re: Stupid questions about motorised conveyances

My neighbour bought her 16 plate car in the UK then moved to Ireland in a huff over Brexit but came back over here back in January. The DVLA took ages but it went back on it's original number when they finally sorted it. Excellent news! The DVLA take ages to do everything. Lovely Landy. Shame it's ...

Re: Range Rover
