Has now occurred to me that this may not have been a car tax letter. I have just received letter in same style envelope  with "tax it or lose it" on the front, this was a letter telling me it was time to renew my driving licence...

I missed the fact that you hadn't opened the original letter.  I thought you had opened it and it had been a reminder for a vehicle you knew nothing about.  (That's why I suggested returning it to DVLA telling them you had no connection to that vehicle).

I open all mail that's been addressed and delivered to my house, but where the addressee is someone I don't know.  I prefer to know who's using my address and why.
