    Nothing. They (the seller) send off the registration book to Shannon, and it gets transferred to your name. You'll obviously need to fill it out.

    make sure you sign the papers before buying the car and also add the date and TIME below just in case you get a speeding ticket.

    Signing the papers may be more effective though :D

    There is/was a tear off strip on the bottom of the transfer of ownership form. Not sure if this has been superceded now?

    Get a written receipt, showing your name/address; the make/model; registration; price; the seller's full name and address. It should be signed and dated by the seller.

    Not your ornery onager
