How do I speed up DVLA log book process? - GeoffA

Hello All,

I have recently purchased my company car, as it was well below book price. I intend to sell it on privately.

As I am no longer insured through the company policy, I have insured it on a 30 day temporary basis on an existing policy I have.

The company insists that as I am purchasing the car, I must have the log book transferred into my name. I do not want to have prospective buyers coming around, only to see there is no log book and as I only have 30 days insurance, I need to get it sold pretty quick.

I therefore need to know how long the return of the Log book is likely to take, and if there is any way to raise the priority with the DVLA.

Any help much appreciated
Cheers
Geoff

Can you have it dealt with at local level?

Here's a list of local DVLA offices:

I don't think it will take more than 8-10 days if done via Swansea in the usual way.

I bought a car in late October privately, and thanks to, I assume, the September rush, the log book took about 3 or 4 weeks.

All my previous cars have turned up within about 7 - 10 days.

Good luck!

Blue
