M Mick Spec C New member Jan 21, 2011 #2 Hello Dave, When purchasing a car which is out of tax, it is best to take the log book, having the previous owner sign over ownership etc You can then tax the car and are not liable for the previous owners time they had it off the road The tax office will then take the log book off you and send it back to Shannon to have a new book made with your ownership details etc In your case the turn around in Shannon is relatively quick at the moment, I would not expect it to take more than a week However it is very hard to get info on the phone from them I hope this helps Cheers, Michael
