Selling car to a trader? SOLVED
« on: May 10, 2016, 12:36:41 pm »
Got a guy coming down from Derbyshire to buy my car. ( Found out he's a trader)

He's paid 100£ deposit to hold it.

Ive transfered my private plate off my car and now waiting for a new V5.

Now, if he pays for the car and takes it away on his flatbed lorry he's asked me to send the V5 straight to him. Ive called the DVLA and ive been informed I should wait for the new V5 so both can sign it for transfer of ownership. Obviously he doesnt want to do that as he's a trader!

Ive called the buyer whos on his way down and he said there is a way around it??? Im Thinking WTF?

What I dont want to happen is a nice 1k fine landing on my mat as Ive now failed to inform the DVLA of transfer of ownership!

Someone please explain how this 'work-around' works please

as long as you get a receipt that you both sign proving the date you sold it all will be fine

i recently bought a car in the same situation i stayed in contact with the seller and he informed me he forwarded it on to me and it turned up a couple of days later

sell it take his money and run  :grin: :grin: :grin:

your private plate log book will be here normally within a week if you done it online

The postman arrived, afternoon mail delivery and dropped the the new V5 document on my doorstep 15minutes before the buyer turned up!

 One and a half day turn-around from the DVLA  :happy2:
