10 or 15 quid -- Alex YZF 600 "I laugh in the face of danger" "Then I hide until it goes away" www.upce.org.uk www.drzoidberg.co.uk
Self-evidently a new number plate. She has fallen foul of the non-standard font obviously. All she needs to do is to get a conforming plate from a reputable shop that will provide a completely legal one and present herself at an MoT testing station with the vehicle - and the plate attached, obviously. The MoT tester will look at the VDRN, the new number plate, extract a couple of quid and countersign the VDRN. The signed VDRN then needs to go to the Police station within 7 days, iirc. No further penalty will be applied. So it will be the cost of a new plate and the tester's time (which used to be a quid but is prolly a fiver by now). Job's a good 'un.
'er indoors has just been issued with a VDRN for 'DEFECTS FOUND: registration plate (italics)' It seems that she has to get verification of repair from an MOT station. Does anyone know how much this is likely to cost?
I know, what's life coming to eh? clear visor, standard exhaust and tyres above the wear mark "But I'll 'ave you anyway you motorcyling bint"
Somewhere between 5 and 15 quid then. I suppose at least the money goes to a good honest MOT testing station and not directly to Police Ltd.
She still has the original legal one. She changed it to a smaller one because of the risk to pedestrians. Still, the cost is going in the right direction.
Pip says... When I had to get my VDRN signed, UFO Motorcycles charged the extortionate sum of a pack of biscuits (pref chocolate). Which seemed like a fair deal to me.
It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the The peds would be leaping out of Sorby's way and catch their shins on the large plate. -- Dave GS 850 x2 / SE 6a SbS#6 DIAABTCOD#16 APOSTLE#6 FUB#3 FUB KotL OSOS#12? UKRMMA#19 COSOC#10
I got a VDRN for a non-working brake light on my car. IIRC the MOT man charged 3GBP to stamp a paper to say it had been fixed. -- <8P Wizard Suzuki GS550 "I like that. Nicely shite" - TOG Golf GTi 16v ANORAK#17b BOMB#19 BOTAFOT#138 BREast#5 COFF#24 COSOC#8 DFV#11 STG#1
