    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi everyone,

 

I am due to buy a car without a V5 document as the owner of the car was not sent a new V5 when he originally purchased the car but failed to chase this matter with the DVLA.

 

He has the new keeper supplement for the car, 2 keys, mot (at least 2) service history and receipt of his purchase from a dealer. I have also perfomed a HPi check on the car and everything came out clear. The car is not stolen, the mileage is legit, it has not been recorded as a total loss by insurance and is not on the at risk list etc etc.

 

Obviously the DVLA do not recommend you buy a car without a V5 but then they do have an option for that on the V62 form so it must happen.

 

I am basically just worried that if I fill in a V62 and the DVLA contact the person that is currently the registered keeper (but not the owner) and they for some reason object I will have lost money. I will have a receipt for my purchase, I am paying by bankers draft, I will have the car with 2 keys and all the documents mentioned above - will this be enough to argue my case if it comes to it?

 

Can somebody help and offer me some advice ASAP please!!? Thanks.

Yes, found an advert and replied. Took the car for a test drive and we have been in contact via phone. I have his full name and address, I will also have his account details for the bankers draft - why?

If you dont know this bloke then you are taking a risk all be it you have done everything you can to find out about the car.

 

If your parting with serious money then tell him to get the V5 which takes a couple of weeks and then you will do the deal.

 

I wouldnt touch it without one

 

neither would a dealer and that should tell you something

 

your call though

I hear what you are saying. However, due to the fact the previous owner failed to send off the V5 when he purchased the car, this guy will have to fill in a V62 as a new owner. The DVLA says it takes 4 weeks to then send out a V5 with him as the registered owner.

 

I managed to knock money off the price but he is saying to me that if he does that he would want more money than we agreed.

 

I am stuck really because I fell in love with the car but on the other hand you are right it does seem to be a bit of a risk.

 

It is just frustrating that I have done all these checks, will be in possesion of a car with 2 keys, mots and service history, new keeper slip from previous purchase, receipt from previous purchase, my own receipt. I have also requested he provide 3 proofs of ID and I still can't gurantee I will be considered as the owner of the car.

I would just make the point that every time I change my car, it goes to the new owner or dealer without a V5. The V5 is sent on a few weeks later.

 

The reason for this, is the time required to obtain the new V5 following registration plate transfer/retention.

So does having possesion of the actual car, two keys, having a clear Hpi check, receipts of both purchases, new keeper supplement from previous sale, mot and service history for the car mean nothing?

 

So it is possible in this day and age for you to have all that information but yet it is not proof the car is yours?

 

How would someone that was not the actual owner have all of that information - inparticular the service history??

 

What is the point of doing a Hpi check if it is meaningless? Because obviously the reason this purchase would be risky is to do with the fact that the car could be stolen? But then shouldn't it appear so on the Hpi??

My professional advice to you is (i am Vehicle Finance Fraud Investigator) is :-

 

Call DVLA, find the the DOC REF on the keeper supplement give dvla that ref number to confirm the details, Go onto 192.com and make enquries of the previous keeper incase there is a telephone number you can call, same applies to the person selling the vehicle always ask for proof of address, from the person your buying from if he is legit then he would be happy for you to see a driving licence or passport,he should not object to taking details from the those documents after all he is asking that you trust him with couple of grand. I know people have gone as far a taking mobile phone picture of the seller.! He may be totally legit, but the fact that he hasn't waited or applied for a V5 raises some questions, firstly "whats the rush?". go onto VOSA.gov.uk and check the MOT you will need DOC Ref from keeper supplement and MOT Certificate number. Confirming the Mileage on the HPI is an easy CHEAT, if the vehicle has never had its milage confirmed before on HPI, all you do is back the clock up to the mileage of your choice then phone hpi, given the false reading, bang! the new mileage is recorded, so therefore it means nothing, unless the mileage has been recorded on HPI from yonks ago, i.e Audit trail of mileage recording. I dont know if your in london, but if i am too late then...... but if you need more advice and checks you can do PM me and i will give detailed information about the simple telephone numbers you can call to confirm the vehicles details. good luck

It SHOULD do, yes. But let's say the guy who is selling it to you (call him no. 3) has acquired it in good faith from somebody (2) who has rented/leased it from somebody else (1), then stopped paying & not returned the vehicle. There is a delay in (1) reporting it to the police while he tries to sort things out with (2), who has already sold it on to (3). Meanwhile you come along & fall in love with the car & buy it from (3) with no V5.

 

You get stopped one night by a police ANPR check, showing the vehicle is stolen. (1 has now reported it as such). You WILL be arrested on suspicion of taking a vehicle without the owners consent. HPI won't be interested because at the time of the check, it wasn't reported stolen - they have kept thier side of the deal.

 

Although it is not proof of ownership, a V5 will certainly help show that you acquired the vehicle in good faith & are not trying to hide anything. The above scenario might sound far fetched, but it isn't, trust me - unfortunately I can't go into further details on a public forum.

 

I really really would not purchase without a V5. If the guy is legit, he won't mind sorting it out. If not, there is ALWAYS another bargain to be had.

I see what you mean. But number (1) would have the V5 if he rented or leased the car not the person he leased it to, number (2). So number (2) would not be able to provide number (3) with a new keeper supplement??

 

Or would he, I don't know??

The difference in your case Pat is that you are able to produce a V5 prior to any sale taking place.

 

Not always.

 

I have previously decided that I will change the car and applied for retention before even looking at other vehicles - so at the point of contract, I have no V5 of any sort.

Hi everyone,

 

I am due to buy a car without a V5 document as the owner of the car was not sent a new V5 when he originally purchased the car but failed to chase this matter with the DVLA.

 

Ask yourself (or even better, ask him) WHY??

Obviously the DVLA do not recommend you buy a car without a V5 but then they do have an option for that on the V62 form so it must happen.

 

Yep, it can & does happen (as in the real life example I gave) but the potential for something to go wrong (as you mention below) is horrendous.

 

I am basically just worried that if I fill in a V62 and the DVLA contact the person that is currently the registered keeper (but not the owner) and they for some reason object I will have lost money. I will have a receipt for my purchase, I am paying by bankers draft, I will have the car with 2 keys and all the documents mentioned above - will this be enough to argue my case if it comes to it?

 

You will be able to argue, but at best it will mean a long frustrating debate between insurance companies, at worst you might be doing so having already been arrested.

 

Can somebody help and offer me some advice ASAP please!!? Thanks.

 

The above poster sounds more qualified than me, but my simple advice is tell this guy to ring you when he has the V5, or walk away from the deal & save yourself a lot of potential grief down the line.

 

Hope this is of some help.

At this stage I would just like to thank you all for your comments, please keep them coming - you can NEVER receive enough advice! I am still no closer to a decision either way but your advice is obviously helping me think about worse case scenario etc and making me question whether or not it is worth it.

 

Fightback - I understand you seem to have had a bad experience and I really appreciate your advice on this. It definitely helps. I think to put my mind at rest both ways I will do what Oh Boy suggests (I have nothing to lose by doing that) and see if that settles my doubts. If not I agree that I should just walk away.

 

Pat Davies it would be interesting to hear your experiences as well on the flip side. As we have Fightback with the bad experience and trouble and you with good experiences. Would be good to get an understanding of both sides.

Ha ha. O right - sounds like you had a rough time with it and must have been even worse for the person. You said investigating it - what type of investigator are you? Vehicle Finance Fraud Investigator? Police? Insurance?

 

Sorry to be nosey but I am just curious at which side you were approaching this?

Derekcat928 funny you should say that I have just come off the phone with them and they are excellent!! I strongly recommend them to anyone with DVLA queries or problems. I was contacted within an hour of my reply by email and phone.

 

I missed the call, called back left a message and within five minutes they were on the phone!!

 

Top notch!!!!

 

They advised me of my legal right in this situation. Don't forget if you have a problem visit cherishedregistrations.net cherished number chat discussion forum

I lost my V5 document and had to tax my car - I ended up popping into the DVLA office in Reading where they printed me a copy of my V5 document there and then for a few quid.

 

This was about a year or so ago so I don't know if it's changed but it was after the tightening of the V5 requirements stuff...

I am in the reversed situation. My brother emigrated this week - someone wants to buy his old car, but the V5 is at my parents' house.

 

Can I sell the car tonight with tax and MoT, and we just give each other handwritten receipts while the V5 is posted through?

 

If we do this, am I covered if they get any speeding offences etc in the next 3 days or so?

The V5 cannot just be posted on. The seller and the buyer must both complete and sign the new keeper details. The seller sends the V5 to DVLA; the buyer gets section 10 - New Keeper Supplement (green section).

 

If there are any speeding, etc. offences or parking contraventions, you will receive the paperwork (NIP, NtO, etc.) and will have to fill it in stating that the vehicle was sold and to whom. The receipts are your proof.

 

I am assuming that your brother has put the V5 into your name? If not, I am unsure as to how you can sign anything as you are neither the registered keeper or the owner.

I have previously decided that I will change the car and applied for retention before even looking at other vehicles - so at the point of contract, I have no V5 of any sort.

 

When I had a need to do that once before, I photocopied the V5 first so that I could show that to the buyer. I know it isn't absolute proof, but felt it was more reassuring than having nothing at all. :)
