getting there, needs a few small niggly things done, nothing that stops it from driving, just to get the bumpers colourcoded and get a few marks on the innerwing where theres been an induction kit at one point rubbing against the paintwork on the innerwing to get painted, needs tax aswell

just a build up of points at work for speeding and overloading, nothing mjor to be honest, would be different if i was done for dangerous/reckless, caught creeping over the 60 limit in the works van a few times and overloaded by a fraction aswell once

you have to follow them to the nearest public weigh station and have the vehicle weighed with it fully loaded, they then make you take out all the stuff so the van is empty and weigh it again whilst empty, then they make you load up again to the legal limit and once you have done that knackered they give you 60 quid fine and 3 points, there nice that way you see, especially as they stood back and watch me unload heavy cooling equipment from my van myself and then load it back on again while they just stood and looked at me, felt like knocking the 2 barstewards clean out so i did
