Parking ticket help
On Friday (22nd september) afternoon I sold a car to a french chap, who drove from my house to the midlands on the Friday night - he would drive it back to France. On that Friday morning, i called the DVLA asking them what i should do with the V5 etc, i was told to sign and date a letter letting them know the situation with him taking to France etc. I did get a tax reminder but rang the DVLA up and they said its fine but takes 2-3 weeks to process a change.
Looks like he stopped at a motorway services early Saturday morning (23rd) left at 7AM and subsequently got a Parking EYE fine and it arrived this morning at my address (obviously car still registered to me). Don't you ignore them or something, or do I simply contact them? Not sure what to do. Thanks |

I assume he taxed the vehicle before he drove it away?
Then that would show the vehicle had changed owners and he'd need the v5 tear off to do it. |

Yup sold the car and I'm not driving.
V5 did not need to be sent off, the online system which i usually use (is not set up for selling to someone abroad). I consulted the DVLA on what to do. The key thing is the DVLA change stuff from date on the letter and its from the day before the fine. |

I've sent these fuckers the letter and told them to get in contact with the DVLA, the DVLA confirmed that from the 23rd I'm not the owner. |
