V5 Document Missing

[koppatroppa2002]

Hi there, I wanna buy a is220d but the seller can't find the V5 doc; he says that we just need to go together at dmla and he'll register straight away on my name ..just to speed up thinks and not to wait 4-6weeks until he will receive the new V5. Can anyone tell me how this work as I sure need to be 100% its right!!

Cheers.

Honestly and just my opinion.... But I would never buy a car with no V5 present.

Same here and put together with your other thread about being run on red diesel i'd stay well clear. Very dodgy sounding seller.

Cheers guys for ur replying so quick. Eventually bought the car 2days ago as seller found the V5 doc but I do have some power related issues and "check vsc" appear on center dashboard screen. Happened after filled up with diesel yesterday at a petrol station. Read few reviews about "C ring" ..if you dint close tight after refill u mite get some fume loss wich mite activate the "check vsc" message! Any other thoughts will be appreciated.
