When considering buying a used crank it's also worth checking the 'roundness'/ovality of the journals (using a micrometer) & the overall straightness of the crank (not easy for the 'layman' to do !).

All-red rear lenses are US spec.

Ian, I wouldn't worry about filling in the form before you go - they will fill it in for you. Depending on which DVLA office you're dealing with & which clerk handles your application it may or may not go smoothly - & if you're lucky you may only have to make the one visit. Some advice: 1) Y...
