Thought tell all great story of fantastic service, we are in France needed to get insurance however my TVR needed registration, I contacted TVR heritage asked urgently COC, they did everything to help me, with in five days had PDF of COC with all details they were absolutely fantastic

No idea what any of that means.

It depends on your glass % empty/full.

They took five days to respond to an urgent email request?

[kriss5154]

That's really cynical COC is really a very precise document, TVR is not normal car in France, so document has to be really detailed, so it's not about 1/2 full or not, they helped and where very supportive so if they helped is it wrong to say thank you ?

[anonymous-user]

Two things
1. I don't think it's at all cynical.
2. I don't thing saying thank you for something you are happy with is anything but very correct and polite.

End of.

Sounds as though they have improved their CoC service as when I requested one for my Tuscan S 2 years ago I received nothing. A phone call two weeks later and it was sent via e-mail in PDF format which was of no use as it had to be the orignal for the control in Belgium. However the PDF copy shown rather a lot of errors i.e. tyre size, gearbox ratios etc so another had to be issued, finally receive the original correct document a week or so later. Good luck with your registration in France I hope it goes better than mine in Belgium as I am still waiting.

COC= Certificate of Conformity, a document issued by a manufacturer that lists the details of their vehicle and is required by the authorities of the country into which it is being imported (even if that model has already been officially imported in volume!).

Yes can explain to register a car here in France from UK you have to have certificate of conformity, that shows complete spec of the car including emissions, with this plus other documentation you can apply to re register from uk

[TwinKam]

Also required if you wanted to bring your French (etc) registered car to UK and register it here. Even if it was built here. Even if it was previously registered in UK. Basically, whenever a car is re-registered in another country, even if that model was/is an official import. Oh, forgot to mention that there are costs involved
Apart from that, just an exercise to justify the number of bureaucrats...
I'd say that we're fortunate that 'someone' still holds these COCs for TVR, wonder how Rover owners get on...
