    Hi,

    Currently trying to sell my car and I have somebody coming to view it tomorrow.

    Might be a daft question but if he wants to buy it from me - what documentation etc. do I need?

    Thanks

    After the VLC/log book has been signed and the new sellers address added to it you (the seller) send it to Shannon. Don't give it to the buyer directly.

    Change in Ownership for post 1993 vehicles:
    Send the following to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Computer Services Division, Shannon Town Centre, Co. Clare. (Phone: +353 (0)61 365 000 or **Lo-Call 1890-411412):
    If sold privately, complete part b of the vehicle licensing certificate or the registration certificate for post-April 2004 vehicles.

    Yup, All you gotta do is get him to sign it and you post it off. simples! :)

    He might ask for a receipt, so just type or write something up just in case.

    Make sure you get cash or a Real Bank draft first. Don't handover Vlc get him to sign and you send it, no excuses to hand it over.

    There is one excuse to hand it over - if buyer is not resident in Ireland, and is buying a car for export, then you have to hand it over to him.
