Mistake on V5C Special Notes

[daveenty]

Not sure if this is in the correct section but, as it's 50+ years old, albeit a Yank, I figured that it would be worth a try in here.

It's an import, originally from the US, though has been around a bit, including Germany, Belgium & Ireland.

I've just been checking through a bit of paperwork and noticed that the V5 has an incorrect entry in the "Special Notes" section on the front page. There is the usual "NO OF FORMER KEEPERS" (which seems to be OK) and then, underneath this, is the following: -

1. WAS REGISTERED AND/OR USED DECLARED MANUFACTURED 1910.

Sorry about the caps and spacing but that's exactly how it reads.

Over the page in the "Vehicle details" section, everything is normal, with the date of first registration given correctly as 01/07/1970. The date of first registration in the UK is also correct, as everything else seems to be.

I'm assuming that the 1910 is either just a typo or a misread entry though just wondering if, in the grand scheme of things, it really matters? I've found, in all the paperwork I acquired with the car, an earlier V5C from 2020 with exactly the same wording on it, so it seems to be an ongoing issue.

Does anyone think that I should bother contacting DVLA, or just ignore it/put it down to one of those things?

Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated and I've decided to go with the leaving it alone bit as I feel that this will cause the least hassle.

When/if I do ever come to sell it I'm sure that it will be pretty obvious that they weren't making trucks like it over 100 years ago.
