Not had chance yet to be honest. Will have a look later as not done running around yet.

just go online, its one of the options when you use the online road tax bit

IIRC you have to go onto the DVLA's web site & it's in the part where you would tax it

You cannot SORN a vehicle until you have a V5 in your name, you used to be able to get a form at main post offices that allowed you to do so but they have not had said form for getting on two years, wait for the V5 and do it on line easy, Rick

you can sorn using the new keeper suppliment bit

apply now, then select I dont have the V11 option
then theres a New keeper (using V5C/2 new keeper supplement document reference number)

I'm assuming that will work, I have no way of testing so the above may still be true

There's no rush to sorn although they make it sound like you need to do it immediately. I took my wife's car off the road last month and it slipped my mind. I was sent a letter to remind me to sorn in week 3 of may. It said on the front of the envelope "your final chance "
Still none the wiser I opened it and all became clear. Got on the net and job done.

Chill Jim. Don't let em wear you down. It will be fine when you get the new v5. You can then do it online or phone them and have a moan at the same time. They won't care though..

You are right of course apart from the bit about speaking to them, they don't care but worse than that you can't speak to them.

Rick's on the money again!!!

I had to wait for my V5 to come through before SORN'ing the one I've just pulled in from Wales,you'll need the 11 digit document reference number from the front of the V5.

Was in too much of a bad state of repair to be welding up and was def a body off jobbie and just didn't have the time, money of space to be tackling this at the moment

So that's why it's being stripped for parts
