Engine No. on V5 and border checks
Hi all,
4 days before (finally) getting round to leaving for libya, egypt and beyond I've noticed that on my V5 (vehicle registration document) the engine no. has a NOT STATED entry. I've read in Chris Scott's book that these should be stated clearly or it could cause me all sorts of problems. The chassis no. is stated on the V5 and I do have the engine no. on my carnet document.
In people's past experiences will the lack of an entry on the vehicle reg. document cause me problems further on down the line?
I am especially interested to hear about Egypt which everyone tells me is a nightmare without the added complications.
I'm going to try and phone Sue Dawson at RAC travel dept on monday morn. to see if with a bit of grovelling/fast courier and a miracle I can't get a carte grise issued before wed. but I know there is only a slim chance. Would anyone have any other suggestions? Any help at this late stage would be much appreciated
George
