I wouldnt give him a copy of my driving licence or passport either!! Got to ask why he wants a physical copy - surely viewing your photo licence
should be proof enough that you are who you say you are!!

No copys from me either, just flash him your passport and he obviouly know where you live.
You could also show him your own cars reg document to see that the address and name are together.

i'd let him have a copy but with some details covered up.
From his perspective, if you turned out to be a wrong un - he'd have proof to show the police that he took reasonable precautions etc.
Yeah, you're at an address, you could be renting and move tomorrow, could be your mates house & your house sitting etc etc.

Ask to see his driving licence as proof of who he is/where he lives. IIRC the new type registration docs asks for driving licence number when
transferring ownership ? Make sure you notify Swansea of details of new owner, possibly by registered mail? Cover your arse !
