My Passat has just been written off by the claims assessor as uneconomical repair. I've been told I can buy it back and that it will become a Cat C type vehicle.

What I need to know is what's the whole process I now need to go through, paper-work-wise. Where and how do the DVLA get involved, what happens about the V5 (which has been sent to the claims company, along with the original MOT), and also time-scales?

I've kept the tax for the car (valid to end of the year) - I assume I can also re-use this?

You will require a new MOT.

You will require a VIC inspection at a VOSA centre. (to ensure no stolen parts or whole car)

Down to the DVLA office (if it has't been closed down) to apply for a log book with a V62 with the results of the above.
