One thing at a time.

Talk to the DVLA tomorrow and go from there.

I think you are hyper-analyising now.


Finish your beer and get some sleep.
Right i spoke to dvla he said they still accept the blue ones as not everyone recieved the red and if i sent the blur one off i should get a red one back.

When i checked on the dvla website it says for date of last v5c issued - no result found

so maybe the new one was never sent to this person???

And logbookloans are not registered on the HPI check.

A few HPI companies will however cover you, this is done as an insurance policy though. You have to read the small print very carefully.

Most will simply argue that all they tell you is if any finance is logged agains the car, but if logbookloans don't have to register their interest it makes it all a bit pointless.

Something needs to be done about this and the sooner the better, it is making buying a used car a complete gamble.

Easy to call the DVLA and say you need a new log book, take out a loan using the new one and then give the buyer the old one.
but if this was the case it would be up to the dealer to sort?? Since i bought from a dealer

It would Indeed. How well established is the dealer and has he got premises. As others have said follow the DVLA instructions to the letter and see what transpires. I personally always use my office address on DVLA documentation because most of my cars are company owned. In consequence the actual location of the actual car is not necessarily revealed via the DVLA details. This avoids all hassle at home. Given the number of liquidations I was involved in professionally it made life a lot more simple. Once you hear from the DVLA following your V5 submission you will know where you stand. If there is a problem which there may not be, then go to the dealer.
The dealer have thier own premises, website and theyve been trading a while, it is only an independant though not a franchise dealer, i dont know if that makes any difference
