waseem1978 Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 I have had my z nearly 5 weeks now but havent received my log book. What can I do as I am abit worried now. Waseem Quote
Wasso Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Sounds like the car's stolen?? If not ring DVLA.... Quote
Mark@Abbey m/s Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Would worry to be honest DVLA seem to blow hot and cold , sometimes fast sometimes slow. Give them a ring , dont let Wasso make you get all worried. Quote
narcotix Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 I wouldn't worry too much ... I had something similar when I purchased my Zed.. The previous owner hadn't sent off their part of the V5 .. So I just used the following application form: http://www.direct.gov.uk/prod_consum_dg ... 067819.pdf and sent off the new keeper supplement part with it ... Quote
Ebized Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 IIRC, it took about 6 weeks for mine to come through after I picked up the car on 31/12/09 Quote
Beavis Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Just purchased a secondhand car of a mate and it only took a week for the log book to arrive Thread cleaned up and now unlocked. Anymore spam and i will ban you just because i can. Quote
Digsy Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 The DVLA can take ages - too early to get flustered. Quote
waseem1978 Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 wasso got me worried. thanks for all the advice. does anyone have a contact tel number for dvla. the one on their website is just automated rubbish Quote
sparky370z Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Why not just phone the DVLA? +1 or email them with your concerns Quote
350 Russ Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Did you get the car HPI checked when you bought it? If your really worried it's stolen that might be a route you can take Quote
Wasso Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Did you get the car HPI checked when you bought it? If your really worried it's stolen that might be a route you can take +1 HPI Check is important, depending of course on where you have purchased the vehicle. I'd refrain from using email with the DVLA - there's got to be a way in the door somehow. I'd persist with the automation until you can actually speak to a human! Quote
Lincolnbaggie Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Quote from the DVLA website: DVLA will aim to deliver a registration certificate to you within two to four weeks of receiving the application. If you have applied on a V62 application form, this may take up to six weeks as special checks have to be made. Please allow six weeks for the registration certificate to be delivered before contacting the DVLA. I'd leave it for another week or so and then give them a ring. By the way, the number is 0300 790 6802, then option 1, and you're straight through to an advisor... not exactly hard Quote
waseem1978 Posted July 20, 2010 Author Posted July 20, 2010 I just called the bloke who sold it to me he said that all paperwork was sent off. I did do HPI check. Seller did seem genuine, he was 50+ years old and first owner. I think i will wait a few more weeks. Thanks guys. Quote
charrold80 Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 It took the DVLA almost 6 weeks to issue mine. I wouldn't get too worried. Yet.... Quote
350zpete Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 Did you ask him when he sent it away to get updated? My bike V5 form took 8 months as the old owner forgot to send it! You will be ok if you have the wee green slip! Quote
