yes mate and you send off the v5 not them, do not trust them to send it off they may not and you will end up with all the fines and points the car will incur, just give them the little green section i think

DVLA can be so slow at sorting paperwork out, I had no end of problems when trying to transfer a private plate and buy a new car at the same time.

3412 means 3.412 MB per something, ISP's normally quote speeds in the same unit. So a 8 meg (MB) connection should pull about 6-7MB in reality. Hope that helps
