Hi all

I've recently had my accord daily lpg converted. And to this end have had to send all my docs back to the dvla for changes. I have sent:-

Current mot
V5 (so don't have doc ref num)
Tax disc

So, how else can I find out when it expires? biggrin

Hmmm. Any station will? Will call my local place in the morning then and ask them when it expires and book it in from the first day of the 30 day window.

One other complication, I've also done a plate change between these two MOT's, will that noble the system? I think I have a note of the old one somewhere but not sure

The station that tested the car can produce duplicate documents from the registration number, if you go to a different testing station they'll require (in addition to the registration number) the MOT test number or the V5C reference number.

Try and wait till the 31st March then. You'll guarantee it's within the calendar month if you are sure it's due in April. Get the 13 month MOT not just 12 months from tomorrow smile

It expires May 6th, so i wasn't far off. biggrin
