sarjo Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I am buying a car that has a private plate that is being transferred by the previous owner. All the documentation has been sent off to DVLA, log book, tax disc etc, and i am waiting for DVLA to give the car its new reg. My question is, what happens to the MOT, obviously its the same car, but not the same reg, so for taxing the car in a few months, the MOT certificate isnt going to match the car? Anybody??

jonshaw_uk Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 they will stamp the mot (dvla) this is what happened to mine when i bought it - i then had to go to a dvla office to tax the car cos they couldnt do it at the local post office cos it was stamped try the dvla website for your nearest office - mine was in cardiff which is the nearest major city hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 you should have gone into the local dvla office. its much faster than sending it all off. they do it for you there and then, then about 1 week later you get your new V5 and everything. they will stamp the MOT in the office...
