Hi there Dave.. I see what your saying re the 11 months..what I was meaning (trying to mean...) was, can the /or not, date be somehow identified by digging more into the computer system.. if you understand..
I'll try that on the dvla web site, but it may just now have the new details on, ie, the test I did yesterday.. we'll see - as they say.Ill let you know.
Mike

btw... did you get my e mail reply?
