Pisses me off this I bought a car no log book it was cheap and I got more than £25 quid off I knocked £300 off as I knew it was gonna be a pain. It took 8 weeks and I could not tax the car or use it in this time due to the ref number needed. Saying that when you pay £80 to put or take a private plate off it took 2 days for the v5 to arrive had I known it was going to take 8 week I would of got the seller to apply and gave him the £25 when he gave me the v5 never would I buy a car with no v5 again especially with the stupid tax laws.
