Did not send paperwork to DVLA, 12 weeks the car is undrivable
Bought a car with no V5C so could not be taxed, they assured me they'd pay the fee and send off the paperwork. Had to wait 6 weeks to find out no V62 application has been received by DVLA, which means I had to pay the fee, and it'll be another 6 weeks before I can tax the car. I'll've had 12 weeks where it's illegal to drive my new car.
In the meantime one of the tyres has a slow flat and the stereo doesn't work. Would not advise.
