I will never buy an un-registered bike again, what a pain in the arse!
The Puch was registered in the UK with the DVLA when new, but is long off the system having not been taxed since 1983, so I had to re-register it. Got everything done and sent off to the DVLA - MOT, Insurance, copies of my license and all the forms and cheque. It all came back today saying it hadn't been declared with HMRC.
So it appears that even if its from the UK you need to declare it as imported to HMRC before the DVLA will consider looking at your paperwork.
Local offices closing was a bad idea!
