Anyone got one just as a double check?

I was trying to find my V5 last night but it wasn't in the file which is worrying, I had it recently to get tax but now not sure what I did with it! I'll be emptying my wardrobes tonight!!! What are the implicatons of not having this? Could I blag it by taking the Skoda one and saying I picked the wrong one up? There is only 1 digit on the number plates different.......

I've never carried my V5 and been done speeding twice. Les Rozzers have never asked for anything but my driving licence.

Yep - agree with the above. Technically you're supposed to have it, but I couldn't find mine last month when taxing the car, and am not about to look for it again before I go, so will be going without it.

Can't see it being that big an issue if you don't have it. Although I'm sure someone will be along shortly to disagree...

The odds of me getting there with that lot and then realising I've walked, and not brought the car are rather slim at best...

Thanks for that, it seems pretty comprehensive...

Do you get all that in the 968? Mines almost Full and I've not got any of my stuff or my passengers stuff in there yet!!!

I've not packed yet. I think it should all fit though. The only extras I'm taking this year over and above previously is the generator, gazebo, a second tent, petrol can and stereo. I think I've always had enough room previously for that lot to still fit. Although now I've just typed it, I can imagine it being a full car...

I've no back seats, but do have a roll cage, which I think makes it much of a muchness regards space.

We were ok for space last year and will be leaving behind a 12v Cool Box and 12v Battery but have gained an additional persons gear (there on a bike) and another Gazebo, Its suprising how much you can get in the back of the 968.... I don't think we even had the back seats forward last year!

Looks to me like you're planning to eat and drink a lot but have no plans to either go to the toilet or wash.
Does your passenger know this? laugh

I won't talk about my first year at Le-mans, that was a bit worrying! Washing and Cleaning of Teeth happened but the rest.....Have I gone too far....
