Has anyone else experienced delays recently with the DVLA? My son bought a second-hand Lexus from a dealer last November and still hasn't received the V5C. Unfortunately, he wrote the car off in an accident just after Christmas but is currently still the registered owner! He bought a VW Golf on 11 February and the V5C hasn't arrived for that one yet either.
I know postal / hardcopy communications with DVLA have been slow since Covid, but anything performed via the website used to be quick. Four months for a V5C seems excessive.
