Nope - the scrapped section is gone on red V5s, no box to tick and no bit to put a date in..

I was told by the scrapyard bloke when I was there last week that the new V5C (red one) doesn't have a scrapped section because its only proper scrapyards that can declare a car as scrapped now

[mantagte]

should do

Yup.. my new red V5s are missing the section, the older blue one I had before changing the address on the MR2 had the section.. tis gone, alas, tis no more.

The instructions for the "new" V5C still, under the "scrapping" section, still include the words "until you tell us" ... so AFAIK .... all you have to do is tell them, in writing......   

Seems like a simple letter will do ....

and from the DVLA website .. same message / different words ..

"If you have broken up the vehicle yourself, you must either continue to tax it or tell the DVLA that you are keeping it off the public road. You can do this by making a SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification). You will need to make a SORN every year until you have taken it to an ATF, or told DVLA that you longer have it."

The plight of this nation should indeed weigh heavily upon us all.

It's gone the same way as poor old Lazarus, I fear.

Yes, I think that could have been worded better.

In the context of this proviso;

You must take your vehicle to an authorised treatment facility (ATF) if it needs to be scrapped.

it seems that there is little room for DIY scrapping and where the words or told DVLA that you longer have it are concerned I would imagine if the DVA were informed that a registered keeper no longer had the vehicle they (DVA) would seek details of the new keeper.

Should they then be informed that there was no new keeper due to the vehicle being scrapped they would then require an ATF certificate to finalise the former keeper’s interest in it and responsibility for it.

Well, if you can not scrap it then there is only one alternative, Mini owners and Landrover owners, and no doubt other older car owners have been doing it for years....  There was a right old trade in the 70's from an army base in North Yorks... You have a log book........

[Omegatoy]

EASY just fill in the exported section, you sold it to a pole whose name you cant spell(make one up) and its gone from the database

  Yes, as a matter of fact, it was collected and trailered away, just moments ago by a Landy enthusiast from Poland.

"Notification of Permanent Export"....section 11 (V5C/4W) has been signed and dated appropriately! 8-)

Oh thats good news Debs!!!
cant find the winks smiley but glad you solved your problem

Pretty sure your right, all to do with the the chassis needing to be destroyed by an approved agent to stop cloning and ringing
