Hi all

Just stopped by to see how many of the super observant among the members have noted there has been a significant cull of current S/N's towards the end of November, with only a handful remaining.

I can kind of see the reason behind the clean up, when information such as dual purpose vehicles, diesel oil temperature measurement etc now being included in the Manual, but why on earth, in the age of instant communication could DVSA not manage to send out a system message to keep testers & AE's up to speed.

Anyhow, thats all for now, hope you are all surviving & well amongst the chaos.

Did we not receive com's just prior to the new IM saying all previous S/N's would be archived as included in the both the new IM and Guide?

6.4 mm in top link allowed. S/N 5/93.

You can't "unbreak" the broken,you can only break the unbroken to break the break of the unbroken, for me, you cannot unbreak me, for I am already broken,so you have no need to break the break because I am not unbroken.
