Auction Buying - Steve Brautigan
I'm considering trying my hand at buying a car from an auction, tidying up etc then selling it on for a profit (hopefully)!. However in the meantime between buying it at an auction and selling it do i have to send any forms off to the dvla?

Hope you can help, and any other tips would be gratefully recieved.

Use the search facility.
This must be the umpteenth time this proposed activity has appeared on site.

Since you won't be doing this as a motor trader, the normal regulations about notifying the DVLA will apply in this case too.

As regards 'any other tips', there's a whole section of this website devoted to the buying and selling of cars, including at auction. Cast your eyes across to the red navigation bar to the right of this message and click your mouse where it says 'How to Buy & Sell Cars'.

>>the red navigation bar to the right of this message

You'll have to excuse Martyn, he tends to stand behind his screen while typing and gets confused.

The "red navigation bar" is, of course, to the left.

Martyn's monitor. - M.M
I wonder if his writing appears upside down as well, then we may be onto something.

Perhaps he's got one of those fancy twizzly LCD displays and the cleaner's just been.
