I'd rather calm down a bit first - lest my head explode...

 
Ok,

No worries, after sending my V5 to them 3 times to change my engine number
and capacity I have had a new, yet unchanged one sent back, 3 times. I've
given up now.

I tried to change the address (spelling) on my driving license about 20
years ago. Twice I sent it back with the details corrected on the reverse
and twice they sent it back with the same spelling error! It's still wrong
now LOL

I had a letter from them telling me that I was no longer the keeper of my
110, following my sending them the V5, duly annotated.

a) they've never done that before, and
b) what a waste of time and effort.

The're probably notifying you in case it wasn't really you sending the
old V5 off. Most likely some anti fraud type measure to prevent people
getting hold of V5's for illegal purposes.

It's so that when the person you sold the car too doesn't tax it and
gets nabbed by one of those nice little cameras or he gets a thousand
quids worth of parking tickets you can show the police/courts that the
vehicle was no longer yours.
