Change of ownership after lease expires - do I have to notify the DVLA?
I have just bought my car after its three year lease expired. Do I have to notify the DVLA?

No, the V5C will most likely be in the name of the lease company. The leasing company should notify the DVLA of the change in ownership via the new owner's slip on the V5C logbook (which they should have).
