What's made you grumpy today?

I had an old van that I sold then it was scraped, but I keep getting reminders about TAX, every year I've declared it SORN then written to DVLA informing them it was sold then Scrapped (back when the V5 had a section to say it's been scrapped) - now I've received a new V5 and there's no option to say it's been scrapped. I've spoken to DVLA who have informed me that I need to take the vehicle to an official vehicle recycler..... :bang:

They simply dont understand that it doesn't exist. I am tempted to report it stolen to the police, then send a letter with the police incident number to DVLA. I'll send it registered and with an invoice for the numberous other letters / time I've wasted!

cross the v5 scapped, include covering letter saying shell scrapped to a man who cam and collected it. send recorded. ive always got the covering letter back after doing that
 
I think my beast is only running on 3 cylinders, total lack of power and dropping gears at speed to try and get some out of her but nothing. *shakes fist*

Other than that, all is well!

I'd get that sorted sooner rather than later ;). Will cause unburned fuel to 'wash' the cylinder.

Probably something as simple as a HT lead, spark plug or coil pack. All changable in 10minutes (y)
 
Dom, its up to the DVLA to prove that you didn't send it.

Have a look at the following threads on a bike forum with people who have had similar problems.

Hopefully you can find something of use! Be better to write letters (recorded) as a phone call can't happen!

My grump...the rain! Normally don't mind it, but on duty outside...I was bloody freezing! First time in nearly 2 years that I've worn my fleece and coat!
 
first time i go out in a few weeks, took my brother with me and we go looking down at me local scrappers for some new head lights but all were broken with the loose reflector issue.

not only that but on the way back some impatient SOAB was sitting behind a learner then thinks oh this is annoying and pulls out in my lane. i knew he could see me in his mirrors, but without any check the he started to move, the indicator went on and i had to stand on the brakes!

good job i fixed my horn as it got wellllll used!

the thing that put the top hat on it was he over took the learner and then took the next turning off the dual carage way! he was an oadish bloke with his missis in the car with him.

some people...

car skidded real easy.. i really want some good tyres on the front lol

and thats another one.. i need new tyres there about 1mm off the limmit :(

My grump. Student went ape**** at the house I was visiting this afternoon and I got held up by about 50 minutes because she just wouldn't move off the stairs and would have ****ted the crap out of me if I'd gone down the stairs.

*Sigh* Better get a letter done.

28 hours of CAD work, then the part gets sent back to me because it has an error:bang:

Grrrr. 5mm out for the wheel arch of a DB5... After doing the whole underside of the car, this is the only error(y) not bad, but it means i have to retrace all steps and check the math to find where i went wrong...(n) Could take hours(n) and i have no spare time as it is, except this 20 min break :p
