DVLA want proof of manufactured date

[Lagerlout]

Hi all,

I imported a 190 Evo II about a year ago and am finally ready to put it on the road. DVLA is making me jump through some hoops though. One of which is that for some reason they have rejected my Portuguese registration document and stated I need to get proof of manufactured date from Mercedes themselves.

Does anyone know who to contact to get this please?

Cheers,
LL

Would the delivery (i.e. production) date from the car's data card not suffice?

Your local MB dealer should be able to help you obtain documentation. Failing that these guys can normally supply a copy of the factory build card.

In both cases you may have to supply proof of ownership and your identity to get the information

If you write to the museum in Stuttgart , including proof of ownership , they should write back confirming build date .

Here's one, I've not had the chance to take any good ones yet as (obviously) haven't had it on the road yet!

That looks the business; I'd love to see it in motion!
