i have bought a nova with mot and its insured now. it doesnt have any tax.
will i be able to tax it without the long book?

[BIGS]

no

You need either the V5 (log book) the green new owner slip from it, or the tax reminder to tax it, otherwise you need to wait for the new V5 to come through or apply for a new one!

[james_19]

the new owner slip i got so thats the way i can tax it

[brainsnova]

the new owner slip will do failing that i think a local dvla office might be able to print you a logbook. when my mate changed his reg they printed him a new one there and then.

[Spudly]

You can tax it from that slip bud as thats the proof of V5 being sent off for ownershop change!

yeh just checkin but its only vaild for 2 months thou.

[Spudly]

Usually only six weeks to allow for the new docs to arrive, but there is no date on it though unless you filled one in!

just out of interest mate
over 4 weeks ago i sent of my log book for another car to change the colour, owner and engine size. i rang up last friday to ask how it was gettin on and the woman said there is no details on the system of my car yet.

[Spudly]

Na once its gone off its up to the royal fail as to whether it gets there, ever, and then its up to some pencil pushers as to how quickly it gets processed lol
