Yep, on line. If you sorn it in the month you can drive it on the road till the end of the month and no longer.

If you sorn it 1st Nov then you can drive it until 1st Dec

Hi Terry.

 

Yes they are the VDO dials and I bought the bulbs from Ebay as they were a lot cheaper than Halfords.

 

They do look nice as I had blue in before but a couple had blown.

 

I am trying to paste a link but as always I cannot paste with Internet explorer.

 

£3.75 for 10 bulbs. The seller is budgetmotorspares

Jumped Fell into the Westy tonight at 9.30pm for a last minute blast about. Not a lot of traffic about so what a joy it was.

 

So thats it for another season, now where did I put that supercharger?
