All,
Just to let you know you no longer have to have a VIC test if you put a cat C salvage car back on the road as of 26th October 2015

Upon purchase (if you don't already own the car) you can now immediately apply for the V5 log book (and SORN where appropriate) and all that is required to put the car back on the road is an MOT .
Once MOT'ed you can apply for the VED (tax disc as was) . Obviously you also need insurance as soon as the car is on the public highway.
Save's me a job with the wife's Meriva - just need to get it back from the sprayshop when they eventually get their finger out !
