    only option i can see is solicitor for alfa david and engineer report form

    must be a easier way?

    Solicitor route is the only way I can see it being done if he's out of the country...

    Yes, just get it inspected by main dealer and signed in front of solicitor or commissioner of oaths also I think.
    There is no issue really as long as you know the car is legit.

    Are the relatives of the owner still living at the address of the owner? If so I'd get them to request a new log book on the seller's behalf, when it arrives fill in your details and post it off to Shannon.

    You really should have got the seller to do the legwork before handing over the money as getting it changed into your name can now be more hassle for you rather than them.

    I assume it's a Registration Certificate you are trying to get. For your own sake, if it is, start calling it that and not a TaxBook as you'll only ending up causing confusion with any correspondecne you have with Shannon, Gardai or Solicitor.
