You'd have thought yeah, last owner of my Disco never sent log book back to DVLA:doh:, luckily a signed receipt and the new owner slip got us the log book ... some 2 months later.

did u not get the small green bit of the v5? even if you did it on line they will send the tax to the address on the v5 its not like the old days when you could just fill out a form and get tax. You need the v5 main bit or the small green part to get tax might be worth a ring the dvla via there 2 week long automated phone system
DVLA I have tried that, but no go,, they were the first owners, we will be the second,, but they couldn't find it ( I no we should have left it, but!!) they had just bought a new freelander, we paid what they had been offered for it from a dealer that they had just bought there new one from, they took us down to there local dealer that knew them by first name terms and confirmed they bought it new and had just bought a new one Hpi showed as only one owner

If the dealer know's them on 1st name terms can you not ask them to contact the previous owners on your behalf, that way the dealer does not break any Data Protection bollox and hopefully you'll get what you need.

So you have lost the tel no then...
If they haven't got the V5 you definately need to get the replacement V5 issued ASAP... From memory it took about 6 weeks for mine to arrive - with no new keeper slip it'll cost you too.
