What's a V5?

 

[Scotch]

Hi,
Its the name of the car registration document in the UK.

 

[boxman]

it isnt a 5 speed auto by chance is it ..... 5-A ??

Usually Semi-Automatic, have you got flappy paddles?

 

[Scotch]

It is definately an S not a 5, and it does have the buttons on the stearing wheel to change gear so, helmetvonthrob you are a winner!!!

Thanks all

It stands for "strange automobile" - those nit wits at DVLA just don't get Saabs

I have a Porsche Boxster which is also on the V5 as Boxster S-A
It has a PDK gearbox, auto, manual and steering wheel paddles.
Thank you for explaining what S-A means !!
