How long does a V62 application take when buying a car without a logbook?
Hey there! Buying a car without a full logbook is pretty common, but you need to follow the right steps. You can check out v62 form online to get all the details on filling out the application correctly. If the seller hands you the green V5C/2 new keeper slip, you can take it alongside the completed form to a Post Office, pay the £25 fee, and usually get your new logbook in about 2 to 3 weeks. If you don't have the green slip, it takes longer because the DVLA has to contact the previous owner first.

That’s super reassuring to know! The seller actually has the green new keeper slip ready, so taking it straight to the Post Office seems like the safest route to get it taxed right away too. I'll make sure to double-check all the details on the application form so there are no delays with the DVLA. Thanks a lot for breaking down the timeline and explaining how the green slip speeds things up!
