so only have insurance (no mot as its not 3 years old )

Dont you just fill in a V62? Also have a look at the V10 in case that covers your situation.

Did you say you have bought the van and sent the V5 away? Normally last owner sends the V5 away and you get the new keeper supplement. Tis is your V5 and you can get tax out with that possibly if you fill in a V62.

I ment to say i sent the green slip away (well to be honest the wife did after i said keep it to get tax )

hang on till end of the month, DVLA have been very quick in my case, sending out my V5 in less than 2 weeks.

LOL. Thats the New Keepers Supplement that says on it that it can be used to obtain a Vehicle Excise Licence. Whoops!!

As said though - DVLA are actually pretty efficient so as long as the seller actually sent it off then you should get the V5 back after a week or so.

Can't tax it without the green slip or complete v5. So there's not much you can do till it comes back anyway

Your one of the lucky ones then, getting the logbook back on the cossie took a month - they even wrote to me to let me know they'd recieved it and the timescale of them sending out the new one.

They are quick enough when it comes to asking for £25 for a replacement/no V5 etc or missed sorn declaration (so I've heard)
