We trade in my wife's audi in March at a local dealer, we get the plate transferred and a couple of weeks later I take the correct log book back to the dealer (I know them) and whiteness them filling in the counterpart ready to send off to DVLA.

Anyhow a few weeks ago I get a letter asking why I have not insured the car, I fill it in advising that I am no longer the owner and haven't been for almost 6 months, and that the car was chopped in for another.

Today I get another letter advising me I need to pay a £100.00 fine of £50.00 if paid within the next couple of weeks.

I am about to send the a letter to tell them to F off but thaught I might ask here 1st just incase.

Note: I contacted the dealer today and it's still on there fore court for sale so that's why it's never been insured, he said the tax is due next month and when I receive the reminder I should SORN the car. He said he sent the log book counter part off the day I gave him the log book.

Any advice welcome

Thanks

The dealer filled it in, I assumed he posted it on my behalf. May be not.

Looks like it's going to cost me £50.00 then.
