took my 356c up to Notts DVLC center and got it registered, taxed and road legal at long last. :P

can't wait to get the number plates fitted and actually drive the thing. :bounce:

That's fantastic Hels I know the feeling. The 7 took 2 odd years to rebuild, felt fantastic for a while when it was back, got bored at the end & now it's sold.
