New car strange MOT Odometer reading
Hi all, Would really appreciate some advice on this. I've just bought a 2008 Audi A3 1.4 with 48,000 on the clock for £5,299. This seemed like a very good price and after a test drive, I committed to buying it. Having now looked at the MOT history, I notice that there is one very off MOT reading. By year it goes 30,000…

dropped curbs
I live in a terraced house, I am guessing the end house used to have a drive at the side with a dropped curb. A house was then built on that drive extending the terrace.

Driving licence change of address
Hi when you change address you have to get it changed on your licence too. What if you move somewhere but will only be there a few months before moving to another place? For example, you sell a house, rent a few months before moving into the home you have bought. Do I have to change license address twice?? Thanks
