    A week. Do a vehicle transaction enquiry on motortax.IE and see if the VLC has been issued - if that looks OK, try to tax it using the last 6 digits of the VIN as the pin and check the address.

    You need to tax it first.

    Are you the first owner on the car, or was it a prereg/demo?

    When is the tax out?
    Basically with demos, they're really supposed to keep them for a certain length of time, so what they do is hold off on doing the change of ownership till that time is up.


    PM me the reg and I'll see what I can see.

    Then they haven't changed the ownership to you yet.
