Just shows you how much you know regarding the topic.
It's impossible for the garage to lose any money.
Giving the fact it was 6PM and on a saturday, I hardly think they had time to even do anything with the deposit/ or anyone else was coming to buy that car.
But we will see when the OP actually replies.
:huh:
Are you sure you are aiming that at me?The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -

You were with your 4 year old son?
What difference does that make exactly?
Staggered really how people cannot deal with this situation themselves. You allowed yourself, it seems, to be bounced into something. Tough luck.
Next time use common sense.

No they can't, not uless they own it.
Thats so wrong its wronger than a wrong thing on a wrong day in a wrong place.
The dealer taxes hundreds of cars hundreds of times a week...taxing your car requires the V5 and the insurance document for the car, detailing the insurance applied to the vehicle or the traders insurance policy - the name on the V5 does NOT have to be the same as the insurance certificate.0 -
If you can't buy road tax for a car your not the owner off then how would HP car owners do it?
Legally they don't own the car until the last payment has been made.0 -
Course the garage an tax the car.
Thats like saying when you buy a car in a private sale, and it has 12 months tax you need to give it to the seller.you are showing your ignorance again

The post office or DVLA will not/should not issue a RFL unless there is an insurance certificate in force, in the name of the registered keeper or the new keeper. The trader cannot tax the car using their own insurance, as they will not be the registered or new keeper.The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -
well the trader last month when I bought the Zafira taxed the car using his trader policy. Every car I have ever bought from a dealer has been on the forecourt without TAX and everyone of them have bought the tax upon purchase (with my money) so all I have to do is sort out my insurance over the phone and drive off the lot.
Plus how does a dealer of a new car purchase tax where there is no registered keeper!!Everyones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0 -

If we are to belive you, then I presume he has an unlawful arrangement with the local post office to circumvent the rules.Plus how does a dealer of a new car purchase tax where there is no registered keeper!!
Is that a serious question?The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0
