    This is so so simple to sort out and yet we are on page 5.  

    We are now on page 6 and I think you are wrong, it isn't that simple, the OP has done this all wrong and no one yet knows the new owners address it hasn't been registered, the only possibility is through the MOT route I would say but the OP does not have access to that and who is going to just give it to him based on a PPC ticket one of which he has already paid?

    Ok so I will explain again buyer gave me all his details (name, address), then I put them on V5C and sent it to DVLA. They didn't receive it. Now I don't know his address by heart, I just know his name because I can see it o Facebook.

    Try putting this into Google 'find a person's address' and you'll see a number of options - some you pay for, some you get a few free credits to use. It won't cost that much for one person's address, significantly less than finding you've got his speeding fine on your doormat!
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    Well, it is hardly Windrush, Bashir, or two states, it just needs aptitude and persistence.

    Perhaps not helpful in your present circumstance. Sorry.  And no point adding to all the helpful advice already given.

    But I believe you quoted that you sent  the relevant documents to the DVLA in October last year.

    Was that at the time they were actively saying do not post anything to them? Due to staffing / Covid?  But the post was lost anyway?

    You may know this, we use it all the time and may be helpful to others who do not?

    But in my opinion the best way, is to do it online usually when the buyer is there. Then no hassle they are then registered keeper. Takes a few minutes.

    Tell DVLA you've sold, transferred or bought a vehicle - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

    Hello, it is me again today I received 5x notice of Efrcement from Marston witch notes: 
    "If you don't pay, an enforcement agent will visit you and may seize your belongings. This is called "taking control". Your belongings may then be sold to pay the money you own"
    Can they do that without a lowsuit? Please advice .

    Unless they have a court order for enforcement of a judgment then they're just debt collectors. Does the letter make any reference to a judgment with a court claim reference?

    No it's not true. You would have to lose the case in a small claims court first. Then the court would have to order that you pay them. Only then if you refuse or fail to pay, can this happen.
