Got a very interesting letter from aviva, my van insurers today. Apparently I hit a car parked on the hard shoulder of the m62 in my yellow sprinter van, reg na52 zbt on 29/08/2013.
So I phoned the lady up. She said it was polish nationals who claimed I wrote their car off, injured them, and stopped and gave my name as Allen porter. She also said she suspected it was a fraudulent claim as it happened a long way from home, my initials are PA Not AP and they are getting a massive amount of these types of claims, as the people instigating them are able to randomly enter registrations then getting details. Sadly for them, I was able to prove I was touring on my cb13 in the south of France at the time of the accident. Also, whilst my van is yellow on the log book, I had it painted white three years ago when I bought it, so sent her some photos of it in all it's rusting magnificence which kinda proves I ain't just repaired and painted it. Job done. The cheeky twats.... :eek
Wait to get a few more. You've just published your name, address, VRN and insurance policy number..........
opps :rollin

Is it also not an offence not to notify DVLA about any changes to the vehicle... like changing the colour?

It is an offence to fail to notify the DVLA if the vehicles details have changed as in colour etc!
I think it was North Wales police got done for the very same thing. I seem to remember someone got pinged by mobile speed camera which was parked up. Who ever it was thought they had seen this van at this place before. To cut a long story short they checked up the vans details and the van was White, he duely informed the DVLA that the van with the reg number xxxxx was now BLUE, justice or what.
