Could anyone clarify the situation with a mobile workshop regarding having a restricted operators licence and the having CPC, and other restrictions such as statutory notices and maintenance requirements.
The mobile vehicle is over 3.5 tonnes and visit race tracks through the season.

We are unsure if the mobile vehicle workshop requires a goods vehicle operators licence and also, if so do they need to be CPC licensed.
The vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, undertakes general repairs and servicing on race tracks.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Sounds like you are not for hire & reward under the normal terms, (you undertake a hobby or sell your labour once you arrive at your destination).
You require a restricted operators licence.
You do not require a transport managers CPC licence.
You are required to post statuary notices, this is advertising to everyone of what you are intending to do before you do it, they may have a right to contest you holding a licence.
You may have to comply with tachograph regulations.
Periodic preventative maintenance is subjective depending on expected annual mileage, age of vehicle etc.
Maintenance can be done by yourself or a contracted agent and either should have access to the appropriate equipment ie brake testers, beam collector lenses, emissions meters etc

D-CPC
if you are carrying items for your own use, then you do not require D-CPC, your description would infer this is the case.
But, if you are delivering, sat an engine part for someone else's use, then you will need D-CPC as you are now delivering.
If the vehicle is exempt of the Operator Licence, then D-CPC is not required.
