Re: [Quantum Owners] MOT and IVA
My saloon was SVA'd, and I sent all the documentation to the DVLA. They took a long while to send back my driving licence, receipts etc - when they did they just sent them back with a letter saying we enclose the insurance 30 day cover note. I telephoned them, as they hadn't included the authority to obtain the number plates (or indeed the registration mark). True to form, they then said 'we need another cover note as your old one is about to expire' n.b. it hadn't expired. and if they hadn't taken so long, and they could have at least asked me before I phoned.. I bit my tongue and contacted the insurers. DVLA sent the V5C with the saloon registered as a 2 seater! Why are DVLA so unpopular? In contrast the VOSA staff who did the SVA were very professional. - Original Message - From: Russell Willcox To: quantumowners@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, May 17, 2010 9:20 PM Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] MOT and IVA I was told the IVA was a test to check for construction of use not road worthiness, hence the need for an Mot.

You would think there would be one standard never mind is it raining or sunny, what colour socks am I wearing :-) Should I insure my car or not.Please ingnore that last statement of course we should, but you get the idea.
