Does anyone know how you go about registering a vehicle in the UK that has come from the isle of wight?(do you even need to)? The vehicle is in the UK at the moment but apparently needs registering with the DVLA first, had a look on their site and all i can see is info about Isle of Man and channel Islands.
Anyone?

1st February 2012, 08:30 PM #4 perhaps it isn't registered - is it an off-roader or imported from somewhere?
I registered a couple of bikes back in the day, they were imported from Japan. It's not too epic, you need to go to an area DVLA office with an MOT certificate and import documents, they should be able to give it an age related plate.

1st February 2012, 08:33 PM #5 There's nothing special about the Isle of Wight; it comes under the British government and vehicles are registered with the DVLA just like those on the mainland.... and those on Anglesey and Sheppey and the Hebrides and the Orkneys...
It's different for those on the Isle of Man and Channel Islands which have their own governments and revenue systems.
If you buy a car from the Isle of Wight and it's taxed and MOTed... all you have to do is insure it.
