Do you have any proof that you sold it - ebay slip, signed document accepting it etc.??

Dave

[Martek]

No mate, he transferred the money to my account.

Courier arrived and took the bike.

Wasn't bothered once i knew the money was mine?

[davemfox]

Ouch 

Did you fill the bit on the V5 in where you declare you've sold it and then post it onto DVLA??

If not, I'd be going to Citizens Advice and seeking legal advice

yikes........... that was a bit risky Dave, I hope he paid from his own accout 

if you don't have his details or the V5 then i would phone the DVLA asap to see what can be done to sort it out and maybe a free 30mins at a solicitor or as Dave says the CAB

Hope you get it sorted and at least it's on the road soit does sound like only a mix up really

No mate, as my lad gave the courier the log book!!!

A little naive yes, but i'm not stupid and i'm not paying it, trouble is now i think about it, i have no way of tracing the guy who bought it!!!

IIRC they are on a different plate in NI? It would need to be changed over and that could be where the issue is.
You should be able to do an identity trace via your bank especially if you make it legal using the money laundering regulations.
Besides - you should be able to prove the advertising of the nike, sale date using transfer, then your location at the time of the offence.
DVLA do keep the reg keeper as responsible until notified otherwise but other way is to write them a letter stating date of sale/export, etc and see where it goes from there.

doh 

hope you can get it sorted but surely you should of known to save the log book and hand over the small part

Yes mate, but it all happened so quick, it was only when i get in from work realised my lad had given the courier all the log book, and yes a bit naive, i just thought well he'll register it now, especially as worth so much!!!!!

Martek try PM'ing BBC Tom on here, not sure if its his thing but he's in the legal buisness might be able to guide you in the right direction!
