totty79 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Check the DVLA website but IIRC you need to send in a v62 form https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/209995/v62.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b40rt Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 When it was manufactured against when it was registered ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig10 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Maybe made in 01 but lay around at the importers for a while before being registered. As totty says, you have to fill in a form for a replacement v5, last time I got one it was £25 but may be more now, also used to depend if you lost it or were never given it.

craig10 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Remember to put a SORN on it if it's not going to be fully road legal, ie tax, insurance, MoT or they'll do you for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alectrician Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I purchased a Montesa with no paperwork ie no V5. Contacted dvla & gave them frame & engine numbers. They asked me to send V62 & £25 also to leave box empty for reg no. That was 3 months ago & I had give up really. Just had a letter saying V5 is on its way and telling me reg no. So it's worth a try you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
