Hello,
I bought an old Morris Convertible for 'er in doors last year. It's just about ready for the road, but I noticed the log book still had Saloon instead of Convertible on it after it's conversion. The previous owner converted it to a Convertible about ten years ago, but didn't get the V5 changed. After speaking to the DVLA, they said circle 'saloon' on the V5 and write error next to it and put 'Convertible' in the changes to vehicle body type. I had to send photos of the car too. The DVLA have now sent me a V627 form to catalogue all the changes. It's obviously the exact same car, but now with a fabric top instead of tin.
Does anyone have experience of how long the DVLA take to carry out the changes to the log book when this has been sent back?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
Russ
