Steve,

Is/was the car the subject of a previous SORN?      If not, forget the DVLA until it is ready for the road.     They aren't concerned by cars appearing out of workshops that had disapperaed from their books without a previous SORN.      You just re-register it again, although for ever after you must declare SORN if that is the case.

Then, establish your ownership with the insurer (I presume for fire, theft only) by other means.  Explaining the situation to them may help, but not to their idiot robot or any old call center operator.    Ask to speak to someone in charge!     If they want a DVLA registration in your name, change insurers!

Hi 

Many thanks for the replies John, Kev, Bruce, Richard, Graham

The car was never sorned when it was stored away and I was unaware I could lose the original registration

I think I will look into the heritage certificate route and getting it sorned some how

Many thanks for the advice

[V5C refusal]

Hi

I recently bought a TR6 which is unfit for the road and needing a full resto.

The log book that came with the car was ok although the cc was wrong currently stating 3,200 so when it was sent off i pointed this out (probably my mistake pointing out thier error)

DVLA  asked for photos of my car which i sent

They then refused to issue a v5 registration doc as the car was clearly unfit for the road ?

I now wish to insure my car and a question raised "is the registration in my name" ... No hence my problem as its not.

Do they have a right to rufuse to issue a v5 after all lots of cars are un road worthy and sorned all with current v5,s

Any help ?
