Anyone ever sold a car but the buyer didnt give their address details for the v5. The car was collected by a Polish shipping company and the buyer wasnt present. We still have the v5.
Thanks

It is an offence NOT to tell DVLA who you sold the car to.
If they were a dealer (as it sounds) fill in the yellow portion and send that to DVLA
If they were private, fill in their details on the main V5c (The UK name and address of the buyer) and send that to DVLA
You cannot fill in the export section as YOU did not export.
Basically, if you don't have their details your only options are a big fine by DVLA or report the car as stolen.
How did they pay you?
DavidT99 said:The car was sold on ebay and paid for by bank transfer. We have tried contacting the buyer but have had no response. We dont know that the car was exported, but it is likely out of the country, all we know is that the car was collected by a Polish courier in a Polish registered truck. The buyer is on ebay with a location of Manchester. we have written to DVLA explaining the situation.
Can't you use the ebay facility to get the winners contact details. Assuming the sale was "on eBay" they will disclose registered addresses and phone numbers. Similarly if you got a deposit via PayPal that could be another source of address,
Just fill in the blue export section and send it to DVla. You are in the clear then.
But what if it hasn't been exported, I sold it to a buyer based in UK.

DavidT99 said:Guys, we have the buyers email address and phone number but he doesn't answer his phone or respond to emails. He is still active on ebay though so I wonder if we can get his full name and address from Ebay.
Whether you get a genuine address for the individual or not is another matter
