Question:
We paid in full for a car at this place. We were called later in the day to pick it up. No tax at all when we got there and were told the car was registered as disabled and could take 6 weeks to change over and tax - we were told when we bought that we could have any tax on the vehicle and at no point were we told the car was registered diasable and had no tax dispite asking repeatedly. We now have a car that we can't drive and I'm wondering about the legality of this sale and the information the supermarket provided us with?? Needless to say we're furious. Does anyone have any thoughts on this, I'd be grateful for any feedback, thanks. BTW, I would NEVER buy a car from this (crafty) place again! They also say that you can drive away in 1 hour...perhaps you can, but obviously not legally!!

It is actually the responsibility of the previous owner to inform the DVLA they are selling the car, and that it requires a change of classification.Classic Car Insurance for Colorado?
From the DirectGov website -
"...if you sell the vehicle or your entitlement ends, you should return the disabled tax disc to DVLA, Swansea SA99 1AL or to a DVLA local office".

It is unlikely the car supermarket would have known about this and really cannot be held wholly responsible for the previous owner's lack of action.

Take a few large friends with you to make them see it your way if necessary.
Unfortunately you have to use extraordinarily good judgement when dealing with these kinds of azzholes.

If they won't play ball, then it would be a shame if some of the cars on their lot were to 'accidentally' get some broken windshields and dents (along with their f**kin' heads).

My car was hit by a city vehicle while I was legally parked-do I have to have insurance to collect?
cant u just take all your documents to the dvla place and tax it? You should just be able to change the taxation class of the vehicle.What does the DMV mean when the say delinquent?
You never mention if the V5 registration document was present. To tax a car as Private Light Goods (PLG) from a disabled class can be done at any DVLA office instantly although post offices who offer car tax as one of their services will not be able to do it as long as the V5 is present its only when the previous owner or dealer looses the V5 does it become a waiting game of this time period. I doubt you have a leg to stand on as to the tax as they said you could have what ever was left on the screen but from your side the car will depreciate an amount over the next six weeks or so I would atleast try and ask for this amount as compensation or your money back.How can I prove the car is mine?
I suspect the sales place said you could have any tax left on the car, and as there wasn't any they obviously couldn't let you have it! Did you ask if there WAS any tax left? In addition, did you specify in the deal that the car was to be taxed before you bought it?Does bumper pull trailers need to be licensed for travel outside of state?
To be honest, I doubt if you have a leg to stand on, though a letter to the MD of the company might bear fruit in the shape of a goodwill gesture.
