A bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a spare form V55/5? I've ordered one from DVLA but have been told it could take upto two weeks before it arrives. Need to get my new baby on the road in time for NEC classics and will be gutted if it doesn't happen just because of DVLAs antiquated systems.
Will ensure you are adequately "beer tokened" if you can help a man out!

Tried your local Post Office? Try one of the bigger ones, they stock some DVLA forms unsure about a V55/5 one.

I think V55/5 is DVLA-only for some reason, it certainly isn't downloadable as many are.

OP - have you got your NOVA certificate yet?

TBH, even if you had the V55/5 in your hands now, I think you're hoping to have it processed and receive the number in a week and a bit.

Yep, everything else is good to go, NOVA, MOT, cheque ready for Tax and insurance using the VIN. Just need the dam forms so I can get everything off to them. Cannot believe it takes them so long to send it off, I'd drive upto Swansea to collect one if they'd let me!

Thanks for the offer but Mark managed to get me one that I sent out yesterday.
