Re: DVLA wheel clampers are around...
 

The authorities must have an idea who has been here long enough to have to go through the procedures that Entwisi mentioned. If they dont go after them then the police the driver and the authorities are to blame if something goes wrong. Should these cars not be MOT'd in a certain time frame to show that the are up to the standard of British cars?

I take it, the old Guinness labels are not valid any more.

Sorry, spuggie, I forgot to mention MOT'd as well

Although as part of registration they would be checked by a more thorough test than an MOT.

I wonder if we could claim negligence against plod if it was proven that a driver was here over the legal limit and that plod had undertaken no checks

This is the thing that maddens me about fraudsters/dodgers - is the effect it has on genuine law abbiders, the cost of insurance, the cost of tax, the cost of even learning to drive is expensive & not easy to pass - yet some joyriders will take liberties. Genuine folk always has to prove themselves yet the dodgey beggars get off scot free!! So think its a good thing that least someone is acting on beating the dodgers!
