When I did the engine change on mine, I got a request for proof of changes, a log book with no changes on it, one that says 15,981CC, then finally a correct one. By this time I'd had the car about 5 months, and decided to reshell it, so I sent the tax change back with a sorn/tax refund, they sent my cheque back and said they'd sort it out without changing the tax (DVLA error in my favour, collect the difference between 5 months tax at 1.2 and 5 months at 1550+) and finally got my tax cheque thing through friday or saturday, all in all around 6 months to sort 2 forms lol

When i applied for the logbook for my nova, i had to take it to be checked out as it had a Screp Marker agaisnt it, i then had to apply for a logbook, send money in and wait for it

From the day i bought it.. it took 2 years lol
From the day i applied for a logbook, it took a week :)

Once again the dvla are a complete waste of time. Thanking you again for your help money grabbing ******** :)

All i got was a letter stating they were unable to process for one of the following 5 reasons.

1. Not enough tax left to issue a refund (was over 2 months, wouldnt be now though..)
2. I didnt give a reason for claiming tax back (i wanted some of my money back because i wouldnt be using the car maybe?)

Cant remember the others, but they also failed to sent the tax disc back so complete waste of time. Ive also received my logbook back twice, first time the recovery bloke took the logbook to scrap, second time i sent it off as scrap!
