Taxing car without logbook. - bashbarnard - 05-01-2016
So we bought my brother a ford ranger recently off one of our good customers who said he had the log book and would get it when business opened again. Well now he cant find it. And over Christmas he changed his insurance and I done a load of work on it to get it through mot. Now we need tax. And have no idea how to get it.

You'll need to apply for a new logbook first. You won't be able to buy tax until the car is in his name!

I'm sure a v62 (log book form) allows you to buy tax as you do it from memory. But cant find information. Just means popping into tax office in Ipswich I think. But need to confirm this
RE: Taxing car without logbook. - Toms306 - 05-01-2016
There arent any tax offices these days, all done through the Post Office now.
From the V62 PDF -
What to do if you also need to tax your vehicle
If you do not have a V5C or the V5C/2 you will need to fill in this form and pay a fee. You can pay by cash, direct debit, debit card, credit card, cheque or postal order (made out to Post Office Ltd.), Post Office budget card or by traveller’s cheques (in pounds sterling).
If you are not the registered keeper of the vehicle you may not be able to tax until you get a V5C in your name.

Shit. Basically. I'm gonna lay hell into them arseholes I get some more money off the car.

Lol, just tell them to look harder for the original V5! If they swap it online you'll get a new V5 within a week and can use their green slip to tax immediately.

My mate had similar problem rang dvla up and he taxed it over phone I belive might be worth a try

Or if they apply for a new v5 they will have that in a week

I'm sure my mate applied for the logbook (v62 form) at the post office and then he taxed it at the same time on his volvo

How do people lose their V5c?!?!?
So many times you see cars for sale...they have FSH n loads of old useless MOT certs..but they can't find their V5. Seriously.
RE: Taxing car without logbook. - Toms306 - 06-01-2016
Haven't you seen how much of a shit-tip some people live in? I'm amazed some people can find anything...
That said, I think it's more a 'can't be arsed to look' in some cases... Tell them you want them to cover the £25 fee and you'll buy the car and suddenly it appears.

I lost one, no idea how.
It didn't bother me until my car tax reminder got lost in the post and I couldn't tax the damn thing.
I wouldn't think of selling a car without the V5 though, it's not hard to go and get a new one either.
