So I bought a vehicle thats been in hibernation since 1998, so no V5, simple(just pay £25 for a legal document that you have) apply for new doc
Vehicle needs tax, hmmm cant tax because no V5, so complete a form you'd think and do at same time, nope, system in meltdown as V5 not in my name
Post Office gets rejected application
Swansea , cant do it as need to do security check
So if you sell a vehicle with no V5, under new rules the new owner cant transfer tax (na in my case) can't sorn or tax it until security checks are done, and thats 4 to 6 weeks on average :cry:
Whats the odds on getting a SORN fine for the time the vehicle is registered in my name (date of purchase) until I can tax it, if I attempt to use the backtax is until 1998 !
