Do you still need to send off paperwork to DVLA if sold or scrapped car?
Hi all. As the title states, do you still need to send part of the log book to the DVLA when scrapping or selling your vehicle? I've gone on the official .Gov website and it seems you can notify them via online instead. Unless I'm mistaken and that's only part of the process. Thanks.
