[QUOTE="b'knighted, post: 8822, member: 59"] Hi Jeremy, Welcome – it is great to see that there is now another Vin in Somerset. I do know of three others, in or around Yeovil and one section member occasionally rides to section meetings so may be able to escort you. I hope to see you there but beware, the March meeting will be poorly attended as many of us will be attending the section dinner the night before. It is laughingly called a Christmas dinner but was postponed due to Dartmoor and Exmoor roads becoming impassable just before its normal date. If you fancy daylight proving runs there are weekly non-VOC bike meetings on Wednesday lunchtimes at Knowstone Picnic Site on the A361, about 15 miles beyond Tiverton. There is normally a Vin or two there. I think we had seven one week, but all makes are welcome. On the thread subject, once my Comet was MoT’d, after a long time off the road, I tried to tax it at the post office. I filled in the application form as Historic Vehicle but they wouldn’t do it. As I wanted to ride straight away I taxed it as a bicycle, paying the fee as normal, then reclaimed the fee from DVLA when I sent the V5 off to change vehicle class to Historic. As you are about to change the registered keeper to your name you should change the vehicle class at the same time. If the bike has been licensed at any time since the historic vehicle class came into existence you should get those fees refunded to you. Cheers, Ian [/QUOTE]
