Should have been getting my 225 saturday, but due to the dvla
taking their time processing the paper work I wont be.
How come it takes over a week to check a few documents!!

A franchise dealer does not need to await for any documents - only your insurance cover note.

Is the car an import?

Or you having a personalised plate on it?

Yes I have a personel plate, hoping for sometime this week

Is that why it may be taking a bit longer?

Yes I would assume so.
I have been told that you can not wait now at the local dvla office
for the paperwork to be done, you have to leave it

DEL

depends which one you go to mate. Although a lot you do have to leave for a few days now.

had tha same with mine, cos they registered it with my PP it took them and the dvla 4 more days b4 it was ready.
time soon passes by tho

Did the garage tell you that if you register you car immediately with your personalised plate, that if it gets written off, your plate goes with it??? And its quite a job getting it back??

Bet they didn't. :twisted:

This is because the car doesnt have a a registration number like, example- KP06 GVA, so they go with the one on the car.

ITs better to get the car, then register your personalised plate. Although it means driving round in an 06 reg for a few days. 8)

No I was not aware of that!!
Still waiting for the lovely dvla to get their finger out of
their aholes, only on day 8 now

ha lol. I thought the garage wouldn't tell you that.

Didn't know that dave, good bit of info there matey!

i new that and there is a simple solution to that,

Dont write the car off !

not so gutted, now, getting car saturday, i'm sure it will be worth the wait.
dvla only took 10 working days to do the paper work!!

del where about in kent are you ????

Ashford, if you don't know its about 20 miles further down than
Maidstone. Picked up car today, as good as I was hoping it would be.
Its a little tight in the garage, a fair bit bigger than the clio.
Can't wait to get to 600 miles to try her probably.

Hope you enjoy it now at last mate!
get some pics up if you can
