Help VIC check

<< < (2/3) > >>

Landyman:
You are allowed to drive it to and from the VIC check without MOT or tax but it should be insured.
The VIC check has to be pre booked and as far as I know is only needed if it is a cat C not cat D.
My wife took my Cat C Disco for a vic check at Peterbourough as I was away when the date came through. She said it was all pretty simple just showed them receipts for parts I had bought they had a look over the car and that was it. Then I MOT'ed like normal and Log book arrived in post about 10 days later.

cheers guys sounds nice and simple i wasn given a cat a,b,c,d i was just told to vic and its back on the road for insurance reccommendations dont go direct line due to the fact i got letter through saying 'they will no longer insure this vehicle due to its accident' which is rubbish really

morson4x4:
finally got a response from vosa went to book it and according to vosa there is no vic required its not been listed, so either insurance wanted it for personal peace of mind or they were ripping me off

Fat Bloke:
If Vosa have said its not listed it might not have been added to the register, but that dosn't mean that it won't in the future. Depends how long ago the insurance paid out. We got caught out before like that ,buying a supposedly clear car to find out it got listed later on !
Either that or it might be a Cat D which wouldn't require a VIC anyway.

Ive just applied for a vic test on a disco i got from a salvage yard, did it all on line, will let you know how i get on  :grin:
