Sorry DVLA again.

<< < (2/4) > >>

Woodside:
If you mean the old style 2 sided blue v5..
Every time I've had one I've just filled it out with a cover note saying where it was from and why it wasn't updated...and a new v5c has arrived...
Doesn't work on a buff log book beacuse that's all hand written..and open to Tom foolery

If it doesn't show on the dvla website I'm affraid it doesn't show on the mot database....I found that out only last week.....

Just my own experience

No, but they change the rules and regs so often I'm just saying they 'may' change them, not that they definitely will 😀😀😀

That's interesting Jason. In the past when registering a bike that was not on the DVLA system, ie, an import, the bike was entered on the MOT data base by the MOT tester with the VIN. You had to have an MOT to send to DVLA to register the bike. I wonder, as now you don't need an MOT to register an imported vehicle (or insurance cover note) if that function has been removed off the MOT testers options screen completely?.

royhall:
I don't think it would be wise to try with the bike apart though in case it needs inspection. It's been off the road since the 1970's so six more months won't make a great difference.

Sorry Julie misunderstood your post about the changes.

Woodside:
Yup agreed always had bikes to be registered mot'd on the vin number only...
But if it's not on the database you put in the vin and reg..it doesn't match you cannot proceed with imputting...I witnessed this last week
I mot'd the bike last week that my other thread was about and it just wouldn't accept the reg because it didn't tally with the vin..  so vin only on ticket ...

If you have the v5 it's a printed DVLA document I've always just filled them in and sent them off just like a v5c...I have always added as cover note just to say where I bought it from and why it wasn't renewed...normally a bereavement..
I only done this last year on an old gs450...but as you say julie they change the rules weekly
