Just received my v5 for my Berini back from DVLA, with age related number too. Took 4 weeks but it’s here at last. Now to insure it. But it doesn’t come up on the insurance websites as a make. So will need to call them and talk to someone…which I hate!
In meantime, buoyed with that success, I want to get my Puch ms50 registered too. I’m hoping that’s going to be easier. It has its old reg number on it, and when checking online it still shows up on the system. Does this make it easier? What’s the process for this? Any advice?
Thanks

Thanks 4 Weeks is good going! they did always used to reckon 6 weeks before querying. Phone Peter James Insurance, always found them helpful myself. Probably wont cost No more to insure 2 from the outset rather than adding another later.
V62 and £25 should get a document if it's already on the database.

Thanks . I’ll get on it this week. I’ll probably leave off insurance until I get that one registered. I got a quote from Swinton for the Berini for £54 TPFT. But only by calling it a batavus go go. I’ll call them once the Puch is ready.
Cheers!

Did the Berini come taxed? If you are not going to use it just yet put it on SORN.

It’s been put on historic tax. It’s all Kosha on the system. Shows as T and T. Actually, should clarify. It has never been registered. So the dvla recorded it as historic when they registered it.
Ive been a bit naughty with the reg plate. I got an 8x6 instead of the proper size. It just looks “right”. The font size and style are all correct. Just the size of plate is smaller.

So the dvla recorded it as historic when they registered it. ah but there is a thing called "continuous insurance" these days, I appreciate it's all kosha but if it's not insured you will get a notice of fine letter from the Motor Insurance Database (MID) people. Therefore it's either insure or SORN.

Yeah I know. But I’ll risk it for a biscuit for a few days.

Maybe I like to live dangerously? It’s my choice. And Peter James wanted over £102. Swinton are half that.
