Re: Indoor Car Cover

thanks all for the replies... the car is going to be under a trees so it definitely needs to be covered. The car shelter looks the best option, however my neighbours may disagree. I was looking to build a new garage, however I can't get planning permission due to already extending to the side. So I ...

Re: Village car meet

lovely part of the world. There is a Porsche meet at Lotherton Hall, 3rd July, not too far a drive down the A1. Usually a good turn out there, hoping to get my 912E sorted by then and driving. Although the paint will still be patchy to say the least

Re: Registering a US import 101

To update my previous post I got my V5C back from the DVLA on Wednesday so that was a turnaround in just over a week, to say I am pleased and impressed would be an understatement. More to the point I can now get some plates on my 912E and drive it... So just to confirm I had neither a letter of orig...

Re: Breakdown services

Try AutoAid, covers you and spouse for all your cars. There are some exclusions such as LHD, but it does cover my 1973 VW Camper. Its about £45 a year, however you do have to pay the recovery service they send out and then claim the money back from AutoAid. Its basically like an insurance policy. Th...

Re: Car transport needed

Hi if you haven't sorted this out already, I used Shiply.com its a site that allows various transport companies to bid for the job. You put in the details and they come back with a price, then you either accept or not as the case may be. Each company has reviews and shows their liability insurance c...

Re: Registering a US import 101

I have just sent off my documents for an imported 912E. I only sent off the bill of sale and car title. I didn't have a letter of origin, as mentioned above a certificate of conformity is not required. I did phone the DVLA but the person I got through to was next to useless, I was told to send what ...
