Trade in & DVLA
« on: 22 October 2021, 09:11:49 pm »
Hi all,
Part exchanged my no.2 bike for a newer one with a local motor trader at the beginning of the month. He assured me that he'd deal with the V5 change of ownership for the old bike. I used the DVLA's vehicle check and it hasn't been updated, so I contacted the dealer who said he'd passed the bike onto a third party and would chase it up with them. I've heard nothing for a week & the vehicle check still shows no change. Before the trade in I copied the V5- so I've still got all of the details necessary to do the update online. Question is should I give a few more days and use the online update, giving the details of the motor trader I dealt with?Any thoughts ????Rob

Dealer should have given you the yellow slip from the v5 to show it was with them now so if you get any comeback you can produce that. If you have that, dont worry about it.
