VIN Number
Thanks to guidance from AshG I got sent a VIN number by the DVLA for my Roadster
 However, the letter (Form V842) requests that I have a dealer? sign and stamp the letter to verify that the VIN has been applied to the chassis / frame. A dealer for what? How the heck am I supposed to get my rolling chassis anywhere to get stamped?

think they have sent you the wrong form they should have sent you
V55/5 Registration Form V627/1 Built Up Inspection Report INF148 and V149 Normally they check the vin when you go for the DVLA inspection. the only thing that i could think of that would prompt that form is if they don't have the facility to do inspections at your local office.

I didn't get that, my chassis number and other bits where checked by the DVLA inspection following SVA.
Watch yourselves with the DVLA thoug, when they register your car with Swansea make sure its put on as a new vehicle. They forgot to do that with mine and as such i've just had a right carry on getting Road Taxed, since it was a J plate (1992) they insisted it had to be MOT'd. Got there in the end though and updated records at Swansea, which they couldn't do at local branch......  AndyH

Im just in the process of getting my vin number at the moment. I wrote to my local office with a proposed number I made one up which was a collection of haynes my surname and and dob
GATESHAYNES300381 Unfortunately they said i couldnt use it as using the word haynes may breach some kind of copyright! Sounds daft to me but i didnt want to argue and get on the wrong side of them. The letter then went on to say i could use the number they had issued me which is "enclosed" The only problem was they forgot to type it on the letter A quick phone call later and they are going to forward it in the post

i dont see how you can breach copyright the car is after all a HAYNES roadster endorsed by HAYNES!!! i just asked for them to issue me one as i couldn't be bothered to keep going back and forward. it doesn't really matter what number you get as long as its got one. its not like someone is going to approach you in the street and ask you what your chassis number is.
