Hi can anyone help me bought cat d car now need the logbook. what forum do i need full in an send of? thanks andy

 

Just apply for a v5 as usual with a cat d
No vic test or anything req'd

 

Will the book come to me or will it go back to the owner that had the car when it got damaged tho? few people have had this happen?

 

If you apply then it comes to you as long as its your details you use

 

Cat d shouldn't have lost it's log book. Only if it's cat c and needs a Vic check then you have to apply for a new one.
If it's been lost or something and you apply for one in your name I think the dvla will contact the current registered keeper to confirm the change before they issue a new v5 in your name.

 

Fill out and send of a V62 form. Dead easy

 

just make sure you put the correct dates you took the car over otherwise you will be accountable for anything prior to that.

 

Who are you buying it from and why don't they have the log book?


As a cat d the current keeper should still have it.

 

I've bought loads and loads of Cat D cars (in their damaged state) and the V5 is never present.

If the car has been repaired and returned to the road then it's just like buying any other car and the V5 will be with the registered keeper.
