registering a frame without V5
matthewmosse:
I have a couple of early frames with number plates but no v5's, I'm hoping to hold onto the k plate one to do up myself ideally but have another that's early but not cirtain if it's quite early enough to be tax exempt, from what litte I can gather it's likely to be May '73 I think but as Brian says the only way to know for sure would be to get a dating certificate. Open to offers on it and can discuss details if you want to run checks on the numbers before deciding
florence:
Sounds interesting, it should be possible to find the registration date from the registration number, you should be able to look it up on the dvla website.
Bryanj:
It is but its not the registration date that matters its the BUILD date
florence:
you are right, it is, but according to their own document, the DVLA assume anything first registered before 7th January 1973 must have been manufactured the year before and so eligible.
