Received a logbook?

[Jay Beaumont]

I've received a logbook in my name and my address but I do not own the car what should I do

Call the DVLA first. Do you know who the car belongs to? Or is it just a random car? Might be a victim of identity theft if this is not the case.

I don't no who the car belongs to an never seen it I'm going to the police station now I don't want any point or parking ticket in my name

Good idea.

Could be just a "typo" at DVLA, mind you it is a bit worrying, someone may be up to something using your identity?
May be you should think about all your online security? change passwords etc.

I had a mate who had similar. His wife had entered him into a competition to win a car, the paperwork arrived before the car and ruined the surprise.

What car is it? It might be something similar?

I agree it does sound worrying and will need investigating. I know DVLA make silly spelling errors sometimes which does happen, but I think it would be more than a typo if it's both the name and address.

Seems unlikely it's just an error in it being filled out incorrectly if it has your name as well.

What car is it?
