Hi everyone,
Hope you may be able to asdvise me. I bought a new vehicle back in November 2015 and part exchanged my previous vehicle to the same dealer. During the transaction dealer said he'll send off the neecessary paperwork fo DVLA ( the yellow bit) I was a bit sceptical at first but he seemed very insisiten on this. Anyway registered the new vehicle and 3 months later received notification of tax. I sent a letter to the DVLA saying the vehicle was sold along with all the paperwork proving this. I also spoke to the dealership to confirm he had sent the new registered keeper form which he assures me he did. Few weeks later I received acknowledgement that they recevied my lettter and they will process it iwthin 2 weeks but now have fined me for having no insurance??? Spoke to the dealership again and will be asking them to pay the fine even though really I should have sent the 'yellow bit' myself. The tax runs out for the old vehicle on 1st April 2016. Will the DVLA also send me a fine for no Tax on the vehicle if they have not amended their records before the 1st April? How would you approach thios situation?
Thanks in advance!
