or log book.
Might have an opportunity to buy one of our cars that is a repo (fines not finance). Its taxed.
It has no log book (£25 and form from post office for log book IIRC).
How do I stand in a legal keeper/ownership sense with the previous owner?? I assume I would get a bill of sale or receipt from repo company.
BUT more imp to me is that it has no keys.
How difficult a job would it be to get into the car (without damage) and to get two keys programmed?. No-one near me with a T4.
I'm concerned that the previous owners keys might still give access to the car so would want to stop that.
TBH I'm not 100% sure about following it up (its a bit of a leap of faith without being able to start it up/test it) but it could be a niceproject and would give me a chance to buy something I woudlnt normally be able to afford.
Any advise - even if its "dont bother" would be appreciated.
Depends on what it is. If it's something low mileage, rare, well speced and straight (oh and cheap) then I wouldn't rule it out personally.
If it was for example a late mk2 SE ZT-T then yes I'd consider it as there aren't many of those about, but a mk1 rover 75 - not really!
Horses for courses and different strokes for different folks!
