Good afternoon all.

I have bought my first TVR after many years looking and reading.

I found my beauty in Belgium and now needs to registered here, it
arrived last week and just passed its MOT.

Filling out the V55/5 form for a 1997 car is not that straightforward
so might there be someone who has got a copy of a COC for a 4.2? This
would make things a lot easier!

Thanks for the replies, I already contacted the TVR guys, very helpful but it was gonna take a couple of weeks before i could get the COC.

This car has never been registered in the UK so a bit more investigation will be needed over the next days.

@Byker28i, I live near the Sea but am often in the Ypres region

Just got the V5C in the post today, it turned out that as the car is over 10y old, the 'difficult' values
are not needed, just fill out basic stuff and you're done.

Hope this might help someone in the future.
