Car is being driven home and parked on the drive where the meter will be fitted. It's being driven from there to the Garage to get the road worthiness, and from home to the council offices to be plated and badge picked up. Council are fine with that, Insurers are fine with that, I don't see a problem or have I missed something? |

But as it would have to be your council that prosecuted you and they have allowed you to drive it, they won't be prosecuting you. |

The badge will be issued to me at the same time as the car is plated, so that should be fine, thanks. |

Not sure how the price compares, but everyone I've spoke to uses him and the council publish his number on the guidance paperwork. |
