DVLA had impounded my car due to a ‘computer error'. My vehicle was S.O.R.N and on land belonging to my landlord. As I was un aware that the DVLA had removed my vehicle I contacted the police and registered it as being stolen on that very day, only to receive a letter a week later from DVLA informing me they had impounded it as it did not have a valid tax disc or declared S.O.R.N .
The DVLA admitted that they had got it wrong when I telephoned them and they realised that my vehicle was S.O.R.N and they returned it with no charge.
A week goes by and everything is fine, my vehicle was returned and I had no charges to pay so I presumed that was the end of the story. However, yet another letter arrived stating that if I did not pay a fine of £99 I will be taken to court. So once again I phone them up to sort it all out. Now it appears that I have to provide evidence to back up my, so called story, that I had got an S.O.R.N notice on my vehicle and parked my vehicle on private land, even though they willingly returned my vehicle to me without charge. Grrrr! what do i do
