Dealing with car documentation after a sale
The DVLA recently introduced an electronic system for car log book documentation when buying or selling a used car in the UK. The electronic changeover began with driving license paper counterparts, quickly followed by the elimination of road tax discs. Now the V5C log book has gone the same way. In particular, the electronic system pertains to selling a vehicle to trade or private car buyers. Simply put, you no longer need to post the V5 log book to the driver vehicle licencing agency after selling up.
