Hi All In April this year I bought some private plates for my CLK from the DVLA-SOM some 4 months later I have just received a letter reminding me not to alter or misrepresent the registration, which is fair enough. As the plate on the car is totally legal . It is the last paragraph of the letter that worries me and I quote " The DVLA has a duty to ensure that number plates are legitimately supplied by businesses that are registered with the DVLA. We ask that you notify us from which vendor you purchased the number plate. The DVLA will then independently contact the supplier to ensure they comply with their legal obligations. Please supply the information requested within 21 days to DVLA...... or alternatively telephone 0870........" My questions are am I legally obliged to supply this information? What happens if I don't supply it? What right have they got to ask for it? What business is it of theirs who I chose to spend my money with? Unfortunately I am working away at the moment so can not yet discuss this with someone who has more legal experience than me in these matters but I would appreciate all your views.
