Is this normal(DVLA and logbooks)
Basically bought a car, owned it for 2-3 weeks and sold it on to the guy i bought it off, but i still hadnt received the logbook but he still had it off me seeing as he knew the car, now i bought a new car the same day, and baring in mind id had the other car 2-3 weeks BEFORE this one, i got the logbook to my new car this morning, yet ive still not got the one for the car i bought a over a month ago now.

Well in one way i dont give a shit about it because its a logbook for a car i no longer own, so its in his interests that he follows it up so that he can have it, but also am i still responsible for the car according to the dvla? thats what i want to know, because if iam i need it sorting asap

i have contacted the dvla because of this and the law is 1 month to send a v5 off to the dvla after you have sold the car,its no good applying as they do send out letters and even fines but the law is 1 month and even then it could take 2 weeks to come so 6 weeks isn't unusual.

What do you mean the law? so the guy who SHOULD have sent it off will have to get off his ass and sort it? all i want to know is will this cause me any trouble apart from the fact he could speed through camera's and get me done?

no i havent mate, because if you think about it, when i first bought the car we ripped the relevant parts off the original logbook to do the sale with me, then i took this with me and BEFORE i got the new logbook back i sold the car back to him, therefor i didnt have any parts to sign because they had already been ripped off. So i just gave him the remainder of the logbook and went on my way.
But surely if anything did happen i can still prove i didnt own the car because i stopped the insurance on the same day i sold the car, im not going to be driving it around with no insurance am i, especially 30miles from my house.

ok here goes.........
i sold a car very recently and the dozy bint tried putting a cherished transfer on the next working day, because i hadn't sent the v5 off she couldn't do it.
i got a letter 7 days later informing me someone was applying for a v5, i sent the v5 off and 2 weeks later recieved a letter informing me they had updated their records and i was now nothing to do with my old car, then last week i get a fuckin fine of them dozy shits down the dvla,i contacted them and the fella agred with me that i hadn't done owt wrong and the law is 1 month to send a v5 off and i had done it inside 10 fucking days. i'm well pissed off cos now i have to photocopy the letters,send them off,pay for a stamp,jump in my cozzie or jag and pay fuel bills to post the fucking letter to those dozy twats,talk about a waste of time,money and my carbon footprint.
