Just had the call to say mine won't be ready for collection this weekend
Unfortunate timing in that our big project deadline at work is next Friday, so no leave is allowed next week for me to take half day off to collect it, so I'll be waiting another whole week for mine, and spending another week carless and having to use public transport for getting around

If it wasn't for this I could have collected it tomorrow.

So just spoke to the Dealer and they have said that even though the car has a new registration number assigned to it, the DVLA will not register it on their system until I have completed the finance paperwork, and insured it on the 29th when taking possession.
In the meantime my insurance company have said that they cannot quote or insure the vehicle until the registration number is registered by the DVLA and on the insurance company data base. Therefore I'm in a catch 22 position Will speak to Admiral tomorrow. Good news the dealer has taken delivery of my car

Mine was registered and I actually drove off without ever showing the dealer any insurance. Had to sign a document to say I am aware that the car will be insured by law when it leaves them etc... but the registration never got delayed. Btw, I picked my car up and signed paperwork on 15th Feb - I received V5 document in post on morning of 16th (NEXT DAY) No way did the DVLA manage to register it and send out the V5 on same day for it to arrive following morning. It had to have been registered before me signing anything or showing anyone any insurance (which I didnt show anyway)

Makes me wonder whether they are slightly cautious that if they did register the car with the DVLA without me committing to finalising the finance, that they would be lumbered with a brand new registered car if I walked away?
I have also been told that the finance contract has to be completed 48 hours before pick up? Not something I have come across on previous buys I have had?

I completed my finance paperwork on the day of collection. I brought proof of insurance with me but my dealer said they didn't need to see it. Which is strange as some dealers insist on seeing the insurance before releasing the car. My V5 arrived about a week later
