    Do you need a V5 or do you need to register the vehicle ? A new V5 is £25 and registration is £55. There are very few exemptions and being an old vehicle is not one of them.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    Paid any VAT/tax/duty?

    Certificate of conformity?

    You may need to make some changes, headlight, speedo etc.
