heres a thing, people refer to this as having an 1800cc perkins diesel but the log book says 2500cc - is this another case of the DVLA confusing weights with engine sizes? - if it is Im paying to much road tax!

I think Vdubconvert got told off last night, he came home in his commer, got out , whizzed straight past his missus who was waiting for her welcome home kiss and came straight over to chat about the Dog - she soon put him straight!

The road tax is fixed rate for that year no matter what the engine size, tax rates are only variable if your engine size is 1499cc or less or was registered after October 2001 when its based on emissions.quote:

ive made a bid on the hard copy (i much prefer them) its 1977 - the same date as the dog (dec '77)

if I win I will scan it and stick it on the forum somehow!

just given all the woodwork its first coat of Teak oil - really bringing the grain out nicely!
