If CC didnt he will do by the end of the rebuild

Seriously,he has done the same sort of work to the other 200(spare one)....
The only problem is that the Disco has a private plate...and the vehicle HAS to have MOT to keep the plate...hence the 3 week time limit...otherwise I will have to have the plate on mine or does someone else know of another way??
