    having Been in the Haulage industry all my life , both as a contractor and now own account delivering our own goods , the shortage of drivers has nothing to do with brexit or many of the other excuses being bandied around, it is purely down to pay and the conditions drivers have to put up with , how many of us would like to live in a tin box 9ft by six ft for 120 hours a week , have a plastic bottle for a toilet and a microwave ( if you are lucky to cook food)  plus if you happen to work 5 minutes longer than permitted get their licence endorsed and a fine . 

    we do not have a shortage of drivers , and all our deliveries are being done on time , Treat the driver with the respect they deserve , provide good equipment and facilities ,and a proper wage and the problem goes away !!   ,

    no I did not!!  I looked at it ,thought about it , bid on it ! but nearly every seam was leaking rust , so it will need a complete strip down , and disassembling that type of shell will take hours and hours , I am sure somebody will save it but deep pockets and access to unique parts will be required .

  4. You will need to convert the pre nova import paperwork into a NOVA this can be easily done bu contacting HMRC Dublin offices ,if you do not have the old paperwork it can still be done using the Ts vin number , you will not be able to register via the V5/55 scheme without doing this the DVLA stopped accepting the old C&E certificates at the start of this year . 
    any problems mail me on

    you are correct if the car is insured , take the V5 to a main post office  fill in the changes section ( taxation class) to Historic  the post office will retain the V5. Tax the car and give you a receipt , a new V5 will be sent from Swansea after a short while
