Yeah but the Disco's will probably be taken too! If one of them has a 200tdi fitted, do you want to sell it?And yet again someone will have to remove a Denver boot and a good hitch-lock plus the cars it is hemmed in by!, Two Discos.

I need something to transplant into the 90, it would be a shame to break either of those
Anyways.
Romanian bloke, the father of the person who has been emailing me re the trailer, came all the way from Heefrow to look at it. As he didn't speak a word of Eengleesh, we had to have a three way convo with his son.
Blokey liked the trailer, in fact he loved it cos it is so big, but it has no plate on it, other than one in German on the drawbar.
This concerned him cos he wants to take a load of stuff to Romania. He went on about needing to register it.
So I looked it up on the DVLA website and, sho nuff, you don't need to register a trailer to VISIT Europe unless it is either a commercial trailer or it is over 3500KG. It is neither of these.
So I now have no idea whether he'll come back or not.
He just might.
As I told him, if there had been a plate on there I'd have photographed it and put the pic on the ad.
What a waste of time.
Still, if he decides he don't need to register it, he may come back as he really did like it.
Ho hum!
I am guessing the Romania rules are similar too.
If he wants to tow it there on a Brit reg then he’s can.
If he wants to tow around the UK on a foreign plate he can.
Now for the mix
.If he wants to reg it in Romania (small guesswork here) the trailer needs it’s own paperwork, it can be done without (here) but is a hassle.
If he wants to tow it back to Romania in a car with Romania plate, he can’t without breaking the law
.How do I know, don’t ask
.Trailers have their own identity in Europe and that is his problem

I have no paperwork trail so I can't get in touch with AJC and ask them to provide any.
I did know that in France all trailers, caravans etc have their own registration insurance etc etc. They also have construction and use regs which make it impossible to import a caravan made in Brit land.
and presumably this is all to stop peeps making their own.
Which I think has only become illegal in the UK fairly recently.
I think he's adopted you as his special new friendHe has come back, the nutty neighbour, "Sorry, Blind CC I think,"
Which I actually do get!

Easy tiger you’re quickly running out of oil free ground to abandon all these scrappers on
Indeed, I am looking for a large off road storage area. Oh that will be most of Lincs thenEasy tiger you’re quickly running out of oil free ground to abandon all these scrappers on
Oil soaked land could become quite valuable in the coming weeks ----Easy tiger you’re quickly running out of oil free ground to abandon all these scrappers on
Feckin hope not!I think he's adopted you as his special new friend
"scrappers" bloody cheek!Easy tiger you’re quickly running out of oil free ground to abandon all these scrappers on
I'll have you know that although sitting on my drive for years none of them are leaking oil.
Maybe there is none left!
Woops!I fear my defenderers ecu may have shit itself
Can you get a second-hand one off eBay like I did a few years ago now? din't cost much although I did have to take it to an Indy to get it to talk to the BCU.
I'd do it through my Foxwell now.
Yerp don't tell Boris the clot.Oil soaked land could become quite valuable in the coming weeks ----
He'll have us all nationalised.
Er no he won't.
Wrong politicks!
Fri, Sat, Sun we drinks good bots of red. (€12 or more per bot to us from the vineyard.)
But tonight the red was going down so well, I forgot we still had cheese to go.
So I opened a bot of the cheaper stuff. Still good value for money, but wished I'd saved some of the good stuff.
Anyways looks like I'll be finishing the 2nd bot myself as herself has gone off to bed. (I think she had a glass).
She has to be up at stupid o'clock to go "Shopping " with dottir. Portsmouth, Southampton, Street, you name it.
Shoes for the wedding being the priority. (Wifey's not the bride's.)
Still leaves me the day to do what I want!
Nice!

Either send it away to be looked at or ebay. They aren’t cheap now though.
I have heard they have gone up in price.
I needed one cos I took mine out to clean the oil out of it as you do when you have a Disco 2,
and as the plugs were so stiff I managed to drop it on a gravel drive. After that it didn't want to know.
so I took it an allegedly expert bunch in Poole to have it mended only to discover, through research on the net, that they were a bunch of cowboys. thankfully I took it off them before they did anything with it. I still have it and I sent it, via my son in law, to a clever lady engineer who uses a microscope to find breaks on PCBs etc. she couldn't find anything, which is a shame as it is chipped and I'd like to still be running it.
so if you do send it away, I'm sure you will send it to peeps who are honest and reliable. Might as well take the chance to get it chipped, if you are so inclined.
