Why couldn't you have taxed it/SORNED it with the green new owner supplement slip you got when signed the V5 at time of purchase?

2007 till now to receive the log book, thats a joke I'd have been on the phone more than 3 times

unless the old owner has sent the log book off dvla would not send you a new one without you filling in a v62 to get a replacement no matter how many times you call them,i have had the same problem getting my log book so i filled in the form and recived 2 of the bloody things and then a letter thanking me for letting them know that i had sold the car to myself

DVLA are a joke. you must send everything special delivery so they cant claim they didnt recieve it. if fines go to court then they look the idiot and loose when they cant explain how the letter which was signed for magically disapeared.
