Voided Car Tax
TechnoTurkey:
I bought my rangy a couple of months ago complete with 4 months tax on it. Received a letter from the DVLA on sat telling me that the cheque for the tax from a previous owner bounced and as a result my tax is void, I can't drive it on the road and have to shell out for another tax disk!
I'll obviously try and get hold of the bloke on ebay that I bought it from, but what a total PITA!!! Never seen this before. :evil:

I think you need to buy some new tax I'm afraid - if the tax is void on the car....funny it took them 2 months to work it out though......

It prob didnt, the guy that sold it i should imagine knew that the tax was void!
TechnoTurkey:
I was thinking that.
The letter about the tax being void arrived just after the new log book.
Grr

If that is was the case and you can prove it (ask DVLA if the person you sold it to is the one who gave them the cheque that bounced) then you have grounds for an official complaint (False Advertising, if nothing else) and to possibly extract the value of the 4 months tax by legal means. (Assuming that the person(?) you bought it from doesn't pay up...)
