    Hi All , this could be a tough one ! I would like to import an ex- British Army 1995 Leyland Daf 4ton truck from Northern Ireland . It was released from service in 2008 and brought to NI where the owner should have registered with the DVLA using the release document supplied with the truck . Unfortunately he never got the opportunity due to dying suddenly . So now we have the situation where this old truck is being sold off by a relative , no V5 , probably never had one . I'd really like to get the truck , is there any way through this minefield ? Many thanks ..

    Get the relative to register it first. If it's theirs to sell they should have no problem getting a V5 in their name.

    The below is a general 'signature' and not part of any post:

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

    Public transport user? If you're sick of phantom ghost services on the 'official' RTI sources, check bustimes.org for actual 'real' RTI, if it's on their map it actually exists.

    There might be a VAT implication too if it wasn’t registered in NI last year?
