Posted February 15, 200916 yr Hi everyone. work is progressing on my Jawa and hopefully with the addition of a charged battery it will run. it currently has an old style V5 certificate, and also, the previous owner is now deceased so i can't get his signature for the declaration of sale. so... how do i go about getting a new V5C in my name? regards Steveo
February 15, 200916 yr Moderator Ask the seller to write you a receipt for the bike, send a photocopy of the receipt the V5 and state that the registered owner has errm popped off! There will be a form at your post office to fill in too, ask them about it, they are usually quite helpful.
February 15, 200916 yr Author oh okay, will go into the post office tomorrow whilst i am in town getting a new battery are they going to ask me for my driving licence number, MOT certificate and all that other shite like when i went to pay my bike tax? i am in the process of applying for a new licence as i lost my old one and my Government Gateway card when my wallet got lost
