    Car plans for 2023

    I don’t know, it strikes me as not being very durable. If I clean and paint it I might use something similar after paint.

    Gas seems to be going way too fast in 19 gransport

    Where and how you’re driving also makes a difference. My 2006 Merc will say 30 miles left when the empty light comes on if I’m doing 30mph in my road. 2 miles further on when I get to the dual carriageway at 50mph it’ll go up to 80 miles.

    My shipper did it for me but it’s still the same as a private individual, it’s just you don’t have access to the NOVA computer system. You still need to go through the process as a private individual its just the HMRC that actually uses the NOVA system. You must notify them of an import within...

    1600 GT Junior

    You need to do NOVA first with HMRC. Then send the NOVA certificate to DVLA with your registration application. Usually your shipper will deal with HMRC but if you’ve done it privately you’ll have to do it yourself. Once you got NOVA it’s usually pretty straightforward when you got a...

    1600 GT Junior

    I did one 2 years ago, if it’s over 45 years old you just fill in the MOT exempt form and you don’t need to provide proof of insurance either. I’m actually just doing one for my new toy as well.
