Perhaps you are not allowed to tow anything at all

Anyone had feedback from DVLA yet?

Yes, it should. That’s not what’s printed though, had it not been for this thread it would have gone straight in a drawer.

DVLA site is not exactly lending itself to contact due their errors.

No doubt lessons will be learned.

It would be interesting to know whether DVLA have the wrong data on record as supplied by Volvo, whether the dealers are providing the wrong info., or they are just making error after error?

Anyone able to say how DVLA come by the V5 info.?

Assume it is when the car is first registered by the dealer and that is when all data is entered whether it’s a manual process or pulled from a DB via chassis number from the Volvo system I don’t know
