  • Skoda Yeti - New car: third keeper 28 Feb 2011 (Forum)
      I received delivery of a new Skoda Yeti from an approved dealer in October 2010. Numerous enquiries about the V5C's whereabouts led to my finally receiving it 4 months later. It was then that I discovered that I am the third keeper. The dealer has been less than helpful
  • V5C - Dealer's name on green slip! 18 Sep 2013 (Forum)
    for not checking I know.  The problem is that I am still waiting for the new V5C to arrive, and he is still waiting for his money for the tax (which I won't pay until I have the documents for my car!).  What can I do about this as technically, the car is in his name!!  I have a receipt
  • V5C lost in post -- advice please 11 Sep 2010 (Forum)
    I sold a car on ebay on July 20th. I sent the V5C to the DVLA, but it would appear that they did not receive it. I have received a tax reminder for the vehicle. Unfortunately, the buyer turned up and took the car away that day. I am now in a position where I have absolutely no idea who

    – and hence I am looking for advice regarding the same. I have recently moved to a new house and hence wanted to change my address on V5c document before filing the claim. I realised the V5c document in not on my name and on my husband’s name instead. Even though my husband
  • please HELP!!! Registering new car paperwork.... 20 Mar 2008 (Forum)
    with me these things; V62 V10 V5C/2 Insurance Cert. MOT Ok, now I read the V62...and I gather I will not need this as I have (and written my details) the V5C/2 -New Keepers Supplement. Or am I wrong, and will I need to fill in a V62 and a V10? Or just a V10? I'm so confused...really not into paperwork.
  • DVLA - car tax reminder oddity 3 May 2006 (Forum)
    Noticed to my horror at the weekend that my car tax ran out on 31 March this year. Also realised I had never been issued with a new V5C registration document. Having just rung the DVLA, it seems that "computer said no" to this year's reminder..... Last year, having received the renewal notice
  • Jaguar - One previous owner 15 Feb 2016 (Forum)
    Can't agree with HJ. If an advert says "One previous owner" I would expect to see only one previous owner on the V5C, not two.

  • Flipping Cars: A newbie looking for advice 10 Sep 2019 (Forum)
    problem which I thought I would put out here. -When purchasing my car I received the green slip from the V5C as proof of ownership but the V5C itself did not arrive for around 2 weeks. This is problematic as I would ideally have turned the car around in this time (MOT, repairs, valet, listed
  • Insurance write off, query about keeping the car 4 Oct 2014 (Forum)
    insurance will become void.. Can they do this? Secondly they want a copy of the existing MOT, a copy of my driving license, and the original V5c which they will return.  Why ? I couldn't get a logical answer. Surely if I didn't have a driving license I couldn't get insurance in the first place
  • New VED rules & part-time trading 30 Sep 2014 (Forum)
    I can't sem to find an answer to this.. As a part time trader, I will now need to register vehicles in my name, presumably using the V5C/2 details, in order to tax them, when I need to keep them on the road. If I sell that car quickly, would the new owner be able to use the same V5C/2

    gave me the V5c/2 (with private plate WW02 on it) and told me she will send to DVLA by post. Probably DVLA website didn't recognise the plates because she requested to take off the private plate (ww02...) and give back the old plate (CK03...) to the motorcycle. After 2 or 3 days I did check
