It stays on your licence as long as your licence is active, you don't have to renew it. You will do the test at the local goods vehicle testing station where they do the tests for the articulated lorries, the test is with an HGV examiner also so they are stricter than your normal car examiner.

I did mine in October - cost me £600. Passed first time with one minor - came up to a roundabout with a pedestrian crossing just before it and hesitated as the trailer would have blocked the crossing. Other than that pretty easy - just practice the reverse a few times. The hardest part...

When tuning a CB radio with an SWR meter the most common technique is to tune it to the middle channel (20). This is because you can only tune it perfectly on one channel and the rest will be slightly off, if you tuned it to channel 1 or 40 you could potentially be 39 channels out of tune but...

Sterling Nut and Bolt in Peterborough has any type of fastener you could hope for.

That could work, they started rusting after only 6 months and now after 2 years have no paint left at all (that's the shocks and springs). I have no problems with the performance though, hardly any body roll on road and they work well off road also.

Bad enough for this Daihatsu Four Trak to be completely submerged past its roof: fishing at Yarwell Quarry - YouTube And to then flood the engine of the Unimog trying to rescue it: Unimog at Yarwell Dec 2012 - YouTube So yeah, pretty deep. The pond in that video is normally about a...

Yes, I go there often. It is extremely flooded now compared to how it usually is so beware of deep water.

When you took the policy out you would have agreed to it auto-renewing every year.

And also if if battery is ever totally discharged a new one needs to be bought, this will happen if you leave it sitting for a couple of months without a charger attached.

The colour of the beam is in fact extremely important - here is an interesting write up as to why: Daniel Stern Lighting Consultancy and Supply

Shop around, there are many insurers who don't charge anything extra for winter tyres. Here is a list of them from the Association of British Insurers: Association of British Insurers - Winter Tyres - The Motor Insurance Commitment

It is a complex mix of factors but you are right, your alloy wheels may affect your premium because: Alloy wheels will increase the value of the vehicle meaning a higher payout in a total loss situation, also in smaller claims you are much more likely to damage 22" rims with rubber-band tyres...
