Well as I was getting somewhere with having my 1959 Standard re-registered, the DVLA decided to fail me at the inspection because the speedo is in kilometres rather than miles!
Another great example of the increasing unnecessary paperwork and bureaucracy crippling this 'big brother' of a country!
As I explained that there are hundreds of vintage VWs driving in kilometres in this country, I was strongly advised that I should report the owners of such vehicles so that they could be inspected and also banned from the road until they were converted!
Lovely mentality!
'Like hell I'm going to tell you' was my answer!
Anyway, I am wondering if any of you UK or US drivers might have an old (even broken) speedo I could dismantle and use the MPH fascia of, or simply fit as is for my next inspection. Maybe I could just borrow one for the day...?
Any help or alternative suggestion would be welcome!
I wonder what they'll do with incoming KDFs, knowing they never had miles displayed! Guess you can't bring these in anymore...
It smells of totalitarism...
:shock:
