SORN on vehicle off road since 1980's

(1/2) > >>

AshimotoK0:
I got V5C's for two bikes I got in bits (Bomber & CB250K0) at the end of last year, which was amazingly straightforward because they were both on the DVLA register but not taxed since the early 1980's. The V5C's came with a note telling me to SORN them, which I did straight away on both bikes. When I look on the DVLA site though, they are not coming up as SORN .... has anyone else experienced this ?

Hi Ash, hope all’s well in God’s country!
Does it say ‘not taxed for on road use’ in the box which should be SORN?  I had that with my CB77 but when the mot exemption came in I taxed it at the post office and they sent the V5c off and I got a new one with historic.  All that is assuming the bikes you refer to are insured as was my CB77.

Vehicles taken "off road" before a certain date were not subject to a SORN declaration, as that system was not in place before then, similarly, accessable MOT records only started after computerisation of MOT's.

Ah I see .. thanks ... thing is when I went on line nd  it accepted my SORN declaration but nothing changed on the DVLA site online records. Perhaps I need to call them just make sure.
