Sup fellas

I'm about to make the long awaited jump from a motorcycle to a car.

Now I've only purchased vehicles privately.
Now for my car I will be dealing with a used car dealership. The owner took out the v5 out and it had the name of the owner he claimed he purchased the car off.

He told me that he is supposed to sign off the motor trader section, and keep the remaining bits of the v5.


He has had this vehicle for more than a year, it has been without an mot for more than a year. I hpi checked the vehicle using 'hpicheck', and the vin/reg came back clear. I forgot to request the v5 ref/issue date, so I will be updating the hpi check within the next 48hrs before purchase.

Is this normal, help a 19 yr old noob today biggrin

I'm the buyer here, he has sent off the yellow motor trader slip prior to posting the ad.
He now has the remains of the v5 including the green slip.
Now I guess I should sign off the green slip?
