A DVLA challenge

If anybody out there is hoping to obtain an age-related number plate in the near future, cheer up – you may not have to wait as long as you might think. I posted my application for my BSA Hornet, miserably expecting to have to wait forever. From the day it was posted to the day I received a number and V5, was just, would you believe, three weeks and five days. Can that be beaten? Vaughan Thomas, Worcester
