James sold Micky's Velocity Yellow Z06 today!

It is going to a good home and will be sitting in a nice warm garage next to a few other worthy cars: TVR Griffith 500; Series 2 E-type Jag and Porsche 968.

Happy Motoring Mark driving

I've run out of Z06 now, other than the press car and our red demonstrator. The next available cars are unlikely to be here before Le Mans.

Should have a Yellow Victory Edition car here to replace it in a few weeks

Does anyone know who added the wire to EX55VET that disables the shift to reverse battery discharge 'feature'?

I always was carp at spying

DVLA still won't let me register the car as they want an original letter from the dealer stating when the car was first registered as new banghead So I have this evening sent an email to a lady at the dealer in Louisiana that first sold the car and have also asked James at Stratstones to do me a letter if possible.
They are also saying I need a 386 form from Customs.....unfortunately Customs don't do a 386 form anymore......and of course the DVLA haven't been told so don't believe me. So on Monday I have to phone the shipper who told me this to get the importation number and then will have to contact Customs to find out which bloody form has replaced the 386. Pencil pushing bureautwats don't you just love them........

Build date is 02/03, but it was registered 10/03/03 and as I have an '03' registration plate for it hence the need for the after 1st of March. The sod if it is the car was actually built on the 28/02/03 or 1 day too early!

A 386 is only for a car previously registerd in UK. Fotr an unregistered car the form is a C&E 388.

They will work the oldest date possible. I think you'll find youre stuck with the build date on the door. Just had that argument
