If in doubt you can ask to see the VOSA manual they use or even on the VOSA supplied computer system,they are not allowed to refuse you to look at the book,but read it very carefully as they do word it wierdly and confusingly
Well, let me put it this way: I don't think a roadside camera would have had any difficulty whatsoever in correctly reading the registration. Their idiocy was also demonstrated by their willingness to issue an MOT for a car with different front/rear registrations. I also had some other issues with this garage, which I won't bore you with. Suffice to say that they no longer enjoy my custom. Anyway, thanks for your comments which may prove useful in the future.
