because their all done on special paper and for some countries (like France) there are different items

Stupid bureaucracy when they are already type approved for the country as they are sold there 😄 FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Stupid bureaucracy

- in France ? Surely not

i did think that was the entire point in having standardised Registration documents through out europe. If it's type approved in one EU country it's type approved in them all.

Still Land-Rover charging £100 is a rip off too tbh, as they'd just put in the VIN choose the country and hit print. They'd have to send one with every car they export to FR anyway!

When I bought my Renault Espace in Germany the vendor provided me the COC free.

To get the COC from Land Rover I have to take pics of:

VIN on windscreen (easy)
VIN plate showing vehicle weights (On top of left side suspension turret ... I think that's the one!)
VIN stamped to the chassis (that's what it asks for ... no idea where that is - can't find anything and nothing on handbook labels page)

+ copies of driving licence, proof of ownership and V5 .... all easy!

You certainly have to work hard for the privilege of spending £100 + .... and then I want it translated into French !!!

Any help with the chassis plate location appreciated ... and is the 'weight plate' I've photographed the right one?

Why not try the V5 E number route first? Should be accepted and will save you money and hastle.
You can always fall back on the C of C if that became necessary. John

If you ask a COC from these guys you'll have it within 2 weeks. They just ask you for a copy of your V5

it's in France but they do speak English and they send you the one you need for the prefecture
that's how I did it, and btw if you drive on LPG the carte grise is for FREEEEEEE in most departements

Thanks for that ... I've e-mailed the Homolog people so we'll see what they can come up with - sounds easy ... but this is France!

Update:
Well, I've filled in the form after translating the bits I couldn't understand and sent it off with the required cheque for 180 euros ... about the same price as British Land Rover wanted but without all the hassle of photographs of most of the car + my great grandfather's inside leg measurement!
I hope what I'm going to get back is what's required ... if it is then thanks for your help!
