I'd imagine so, it was posted two years ago, but welcome to the forum anyway

[Timewaster]

Is the forum inhabited by children?

 

I got 7.5t on my car licence and I'm not old. At all.

 

Am I?

 

Oh wait... It was 28 years ago! How did that happen?

[Tamworthbay]

And me! Took my test 29 years ago, where did it go? Only used the 7.5t allowance once when we moved house. They do feel big but no problem as long as you have a brain, but looking at driving standards these days perhaps that’s the problem.

I'm pretty sure I have 10.5t on my car licence or the appropriate endorsement.

You had to write to the DVLA at the time they were changing the class's to gain grandfather rights to the higher weight if you were using it at the time. I think I was feeling militant at the time and thought it might be handy at the farm.

I’m nearly 40 and I missed my 7.5ton allowance by 4 weeks.

Jan 1997 wasn't it?

I passed April 97, my wife Dec 96 so she gets all the fun of hiring big things.

Plus: I've got it without having to do a separate test.

 

Minus: The first sodding job I used it for had a fleet of Ivecos.

[Timewaster]

Work paid for me to do class C (but not +e).

 

Only ever driven Ivecos.

 

Feel a bit cheated tbh.
