Hmm. Oxford VRO, they used to be LVO, is a mixed blessing. It deals with vehicles so where do you suppose it is? Yep, in the middle of Car hating Oxford where you cannot park a vehicle nor drive to it. For inspections you have to go to Bicester, some 15 miles up the road, when there are a limited number of slots and thus can be a long waiting list. In the old days you could go to Swindon LVO and pull a guy out to look at your wreck, sorry rare car, on a trailer and have a discussion. Now you take a number, sit about thinking of cheese at the supermarket delicatessen, and end up registering a truckle of Herefordshire Pink Cantal by mistake. That is unless you get the awkward git who seems bent on making life as difficult as possible for any 'customer'. How is it you can see three differing people and get three differing answers to a simple question? You then find all of those differ from DVLA's opinion. The systems a bloody mess but will closing part of it resolve that? Experience says no.
Are VRO workers called VROkas?
