There is a question for you, I have foreign EU license so only plastic and no paperwork, surely this isn't a problem or is it??
They can't refuse the test drive if you still have a valid driving license surely?!?! I could bring council tax bill or whatever with me but no point as the address on the DL is different anyway If they will refuse me then sorry guys but I will have no choice then steal RS6 and abandon it somewhere when I'm finished with it, hopefully they will be able to recover it on time for others to have a go

Common sense should be applied here for everyone: if you've got the paper details, then please bring them in paper format, with copies as requested. If you haven't got one (either because you're already away, and haven't brought it, or because you have a non-UK licence), then clearly you can't produce this.
I'd expect the vehicle provider to take an equally common sense approach, though the more information we provide from those who have these details, the more likely they are to do this |

which should tell them that if we have an old school paper licence then by definition it is "clean".

I won't be able to make it sadly. Was going to try to get over to try the RS3, but being as that car is no longer going and I can't find my counterpart anyway, then I'm passing. Have a great weekend all, and message me if anyone fancies a cuppa on the way home past Rugby |

You are quite right about the counterpart, which is exactly why I haven't bothered ordering a duplicate, but the test drive weekend is 30th May, the law changes 8th June, the dealer is well within their rights to insist on the counterpart at this time. |

I really can't be bothered to argue about it.
I know what we had to do, IN THE UK, end of. I know it is an endorsable offence, IN THE UK, to have the wrong address on your licence, it must be your permanent current residence, end of. |
