OK, I know I am a newbie to the online form, and duly filled in my car's details as condition "2". But, I see some people on the register have managed to record their car's condition as "5". How did they do it, when the list only goes from 1 to 4, - and what does condition 5 mean anyway?

The 'condition' ie poor, good, v.good, excellent is translated into a number for use in the database,

Condition 5 means 'unknown', and before you ask, 'why would anyone not know the condition of their vehicle ?', it is to allow the administrators to enter vehicles from people without Internet access.

It is also the default condition when the form loads, so an oversight by the person filling in the form can result in C5.

When I get a mo. I'll re-translate the condition into words.
