Caveat Emptor indeed, but that's true when buying any car that's been put together by some unknown person
I have great faith in the general inertia and uselessness of government bodies, staffed as they are by underpaid, overworked and unmotivated peeps. So stuff such as what it's called on the V5 isn't that big a deal for me, so long as the chassis and engine numbers match. And a V5 is all about uniquely identifying a particular car, so it's Job Done. I do get that others might be worried about these things, but being at the age that I am, I've got bigger fish to fry (if I was any good at cooking, anyway) and my time seems to be mainly occupied by doing this Internet stuff and generally doing enjoyable things as far as poss, which as a pensioner is as it should be
That's not to say you shouldn't go into these purchases with your eyes closed, but y'know....keep a sense of perspective!
