Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has experienced this problem??
I sold my car 3 months ago to someone I knew from my local. We did the paperwork in the pub (classy I know but it means I have witnesses) He insisted on taking the paperwork and posting it himself (as a favor)
Turns out he hasnt posted it and Im still the reg user. Now Iv had a letter from DVLA asking for £70 as the vehicle doesnt have tax. Iv called the buyer but he wont answer his phone.
Does anyone know where I stand? Iv written to the dvla today to inform them I am no longer the keeper. I dont want to be billed anymore.
Finally, Iv been told he has sold the car (for a profit) Is this illegal? Surely as it is registered under my name.
Any help is much appreciated.
