New V5 Wait Time?

[MarkeR]

Bought my car nearly 5 weeks ago and still don't have the V5 form, anyone recently bought one and what was the wait time for it.
Dealer has said they applied the change over, dvla check says last v5 change was January, so it still hasn't been changedover i their system.

Thanks

Thanks Guys

Yeah, I knew it would be days and not weeks, I phoned the dealer on monday morning and he had promised they had done it. Quite obvious that they hadn't, said he would double check with his admin team

How do I go about getting one if they have messed this up?

Also, I have paid the tax on it, so if the name changes would the tax be refunded to previous owner and the car be left without road tax?

Thanks

If you go here

GOV.UK - Enter the registration number of the vehicle

vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk

Scroll past the MOT / Tax bit and look for : Date of last V5C (logbook) issued


Mine took 2 days after issue to arrive .

I have been checking that, still not here.
Last issue was Jan of this year, which is when the car was traded in I presume..

Dealer has said they have applied for it, its now 6 weeks.
What are my options here?

Thanks

Update here.
Eventually got my V5 yesterday, only taken 14 weeks..
Dealer obviusly never sent it away, I sent mine away, got a letter in 2 weeks ago stating it would be issued on the 28th June, no idea why they waited 2 estra weeks at the DVLA.
Did the number plate swap for the new plate and insurance yesterday afternoon, i'm 100% sure i'll get a pull today driving, going to take all my documents in the car with me just in case.
