so what do i do then? my estate is on my drive, sorn though, but has no plates or vins as its currently under going resto.

The Mayfair projects the same, first thing I did was remove the number plate and vin plate for safekeeping. Also so nosey neighbour could report it or some lowlife nicking them instead. But what you might find is they’ll want to know why you have a car with no identity on it, is it stolen, ringed etc? No one is presumed innocent till proven otherwise anymore.

ive got an old mini in a council garage that i bought 4 months ago ive tried to sorn it 3 times and cant so i rang the dvla up to find out why and aparently as its been of the road since 1994 it doesnt need sorning until its been on the road again something to do with the rule not coming in tell 98 and the car hasnt been taxed since before that so doesnt apply


they could of told me that before i wasted 2 good envelopes and 2 lots of postage

I have the logbook and stuff, which shows thats its an estate, colour matches etc also the previous owner would back me up in saying it legit

Did you get ya mini back OP?

[MiniLuke]

Can I ask how you got the car from the seller to your drive way?? I assume it was on a trailer.........

If not perhaps it was spotted on the road??

[minidream94]

yes was on a trailer, and i dont think id get far driving it home, considering it has no engine (sat where the passenger seat would go)

[Burnard]

I think he was taking to the OP nick...
