Subject: Re: DVLA Problems
You might find it possible to continue with your application online despite no MoT. If I recall correctly, DVLA haven't updated their site in so far as old cars are concerned regarding MoTs; hence it states MoT required...when we and they know it isn't. In practice I've found you just continue, and the system "forgets" it wanted an MoT.
Might be there is some reason your new application isn't progressing other than this, in which case hope it gets resolved soon. Perhaps a letter from the Club archivist might help.
