I don't know if they actually deal with the public at Swansea Allen. I have been past there once but never been in. I think registration can be done there and then, but they might want to inspect the vehicle for age verification purposes. I'm going to the DVLA in Cardiff tomorrow to tax a car funnily enough... I spend too much time there!

the mech at the garriage says they do deal direct with the public, he used to live and work near there, but I dont know if you can "instantly" register a car, :?

HeyUp Allen
How was Southampton on the weekend?
Are you any closer to getting Blingy taxed/registered yet?
Hope everythings ok with you!

Hey up bud :wink:Weekend was good.helped fit some new secure doors to the future home of the car
I dropped off the forms and the dosh today in Swansea. So might get it back by the weekend. Ill be so excited the day I can actually drive it somewhere other than the garage :lol: first stop will be the beach at a place called Newgale, and excellent photo spot,lets hope the weather holds...Hows the diet going mate? Ill catch up with your youtube vids tonight

I'm still in the process of re-organising those, and i'm a few episodes missing. It's still going ok anyway! Maybe it will be better if theres dramatic change, as day by day theres little difference. I had to tax my D on the weekend, but she's now covered till March next year. I remember when I fitted the tax disc this time last year! Time flies, dont it?
I'm going to see this Monty down in Shrewsbury on saturday, so thats a day out. Sunday I'll be using the D, you never know, you may be as well!

Well lets hope so. fancy a 100 mile treck ?? if it is taxed???
- TheOriginalMrP - 20 Feb 2008
100 miles return, or 100 miles each way? LOL Don't forget 200 miles is £50!
Besides, it's not long till the nice weather is coming, so try holding out till all that nasty salt on the road is washed away.
Where was you thinking anyway mate?
- Dodgy Motor - 20 Feb 2008
Yeah no worries..Im just keen to use the bloody thing, BTW did get a bill for the tax on the window motors today,,bummer
- TheOriginalMrP - 20 Feb 2008
Surprisingly enough, I had a refund from FedEx due to an overpayment. That's got to be a first! I'm going to keep my overseas spending to a minimum I think!
- MikeH - 20 Feb 2008
200 miles is 50 quids worth of fuel? yikes
- TheOriginalMrP - 20 Feb 2008
Well you may get a bit more, fuel isnt cheap nowdays. A full tank is just over 50 quid, and you can get about 230-260 out of a tank, depending on how you drive. Motorways are the most economical.
- MikeH - 20 Feb 2008
oh well, its gotta be better than pushing it around, worth the money i say!

Hi Allen, when you going to Southampton mate
Must pop down to see the D in the flesh before you go. Or if you can't stop driving it, call round this way 
How do you guys feel about a meet up in the south Wales area (Swansea?) some time soon. Perhaps some of the south west owners can join in. I'll start a post about it in 'events/meet ups' section soon if anyone is interested. But like you say Ben let the salty roads clear up first!
Cheers
