Thanks very much for taking time to write such a informative post.I had contacted the garage to see if they have any more details regarding if the v62 was complete when they sold the car.The car was sold on the 13th of Jan, and was caught speeding on the 5th of Feb, so there's a high chance the v62 wasn't complete. What are my next options then? Do I just plead guilty, or is there a way of asking to try get less than Ms90, 6 points and £1000 fine.Also I stay in scotland, and I need to travel to Manchester so its quite a journey, do you know if I must attend court to plead guilty since there isn't any way to fight this.Once again, this is very much appreciated.

Hi guys,Thanks for taking time and reading this.Got myself into a little pickle and any help would be must appreciated.In January 2023 I sold my car to a dealership without a V5c, because I lost it and they said they could take care of it, but they did a V62 to change ownership. The car was then bought in Feburary some time and was caught speeding, 36 in a 30. Unfortunately, I had moved house so didn't recieve the letters to state who was driving the car at that point. Around 7 month letter, I got a huge fine from HMCTS and a Wage arrest, it was only then did I know what happened. After a long and complicated time, I got the case opened and went to court. I was silly and thought that by going to court, pleading not guilty, and telling them that it wasn't me driving and with the dealership being to provide all evidence of when the car was bought and who by etc, that would be it. Instead the speeding was dropped and was charged with MS90, and  lwas told I should have written a letter to dvla when I sold the car to tell them the car had been sold at that point since the v5c was lost. 2 weeks after selling the car I moved house, I did update the driving license, but didn't go to the post office to forward any mail. Another hearing is due, I came across this website and thought id chance my luck and see if anyone can offer some advice. Would it be any use to get a solicitor? I phoned a few and each one said it unfortunate and a complicated one.Thanks again, much appreciated
