DVLA requesting a VC check
I bought a car two weeks ago from a garage. When I sent off for the log book the DVLA said it needed a VC check before it could issue one.
I have contacted the garage and they said it could be anything like a check for mileage and not to worry. The more inquiries I make the more I feel uneasy.
I asked for the deal to be reversed and they said not until the VC check has been done. If it does pass a VC check even though it has been a write off do they legally have to tell us? it has passed a hpi check.
