Looks like they use the British as a revenue stream.Comment

I'm hiring three cars in the summer and will only be at home to get a code before the first one. So I'll have to either find somewhere to get it done online, or hope they don't know.
There was also a piece in the Guardian about this at the weekend mentioning that when they checked the details now, someone found that according to the new system they had no entitlements to drive any vehicle.
At least it's not like they're changing it in the run-up to the peak hiring time.Comment

Originally posted by woohoo View PostWhere you actually speeding? I got pulled over in France with a few other British cars. They said to me I had been doing 110 miles an hour, once they said that I started complaining (can't remember ever doing 110). 3 of them looked at my reg again, had a discussion and waved me on, said something about a colleague calling in the wrong reg.
