Not worth starting a thread but does anyone know the process of getting provisional C1 put onto my licence (UK) GOV.uk website is useless. Thanks

Could start looking into local HGV companies that do driver training for 7.5t wagons...?

i've just done mine :) i got a form sent from the government website and filled it out and had to send that and my plastic card off with it. I rang a few companies and the one i went with said that C1 and Full C was only £20 difference with them so chose that. Now i can drive any rigid vehicle on the road of any weight :)

that lego cover is cool. I think it is just a Lego storage brick.

I've just had that happy moment when you figure out how to build a really awkward shape in CAD only to be crushed moments later when you realise you still have s*** loads to do before the looming deadline.

£240 and another £80 for the removal/refitting of the tyres on a set of 12” mini wheels refub…. rattle cans it is then.

The sad things about going on holiday are being away from the Mini and missing out on the Mini meets.

It's my first break since December 2016. It was quite sad when everyone was on holiday at the end of December and I was still at work.
