One headlight out

[Bogus Dave]

I have a v5c/2

[Bogus Dave]

The person selling the vehicle must complete section 6 'new keeper or new name/new address details' of the V5C. Both you and the seller need to sign the declaration in section 8. It is the responsibility of the person selling the vehicle to send it in to DVLA. They should then hand you the V5C/2 green section appropriately filled in. The DVLA must be notified as soon as the vehicle changes hands.

nowt to fear

Dave, phone DVLA and ask them to confirm what year their records show the car was manufactured. If they say 1999 then it's your insurance company that have fudged up.

It's the V5 document you need with your registration details on.

Never quite understood why it's called a logbook when it's not a book.

It used to be. It was a green fold up book that had details entered manually.

I've still got the original one for my old Matchless motorbike.

i remember once trying to change a light bulb in the middle of the night, ended up having to use a mirror to beam some light from the working one.

So you carry a mirror in the car but not a torch? Unless you don't carry either, and ripped off the rear view mirror instead?

Seb's an emo. He probably has a mirror for his make up.

I can safely say that since I no longer have emo hair. Although after watching Hollyoaks the other day I realise I've copied Newt again.

Sorry Si, I don't know what any of that means....must be my age 
Is an emo a modern day goth?

[Simon Pieman]

Yeah but really emotional.

I've already paid it all again. It was the actual quote upgrade i had to pay for, not admin expenses. As the policy was probably voided somehow otherwise i doubt i had much choice
