    erm i think you just scrapped your car,
    all you can do on the log book is

    1) scrap it
    2) new owners
    3) info change

    nothing to do with taking it off the road or taxing it

    woops

    every time i've scrapped a car i've just given the bloke the v5, then he sends it off, but thats only iff they pic the car up, every time he's asked for the v5

    you can phone them up and do it or a letter as below vvvvvvv

    you have to SORN your car either online or with a form from post office only regarding the tax fine...

    you can write to the dvla telling them you have scrapped your car. if it went to a scrap yard tell them the address of it too..
    the scrap bit on your log book is only if you break the car yourself and yourself gets rid of the shell.... i.e you melt it, re use parts, weigh it in as scrap.
