Call and check directly with your local vic check Center, I MOT'D and then booked mine in for the VIC i was told it needed (booked VIC online). i then waited the 5 weeks for the test, went for the test and was told by the tester that it did not need a vic as it was the wrong class of vehicle (apparently commercials don't need VIC checks) he said the vic marker had been incorrectly requested by the insurance company. The tester arranged for the vic marker to be removed. The frustration was that as I hadn't got a VIC pass certificate I couldn't tax the Landy at my local DVLA office till I had applied and waited for the logbook to arrive... A further 6 weeks. I could have just applied for the logbook from day one!

Hope that saga helps

Your spot on - I took your advise and called them.
Can MOT it before the VIC test with no problem - THANKS.
She checked the car details and said the insurance have not put the Cat C or VIC tag on it yet. Apparently she knew one person drove around for two years with out VIC tag applied. Only found they had applied it two years later when the police pulled him!!!!!!!!!
Amazing how inefficient insurance can be when it does not involve money
