Buying a car as a trader & the V5C
Simple question and I'm sure it has a simple answer 
If I was to take a car as P/X which I would like to sell on (so I dont want to put another previous owner on the V5C); can I fill out the Yellow section of the V5C and declare myself as a trader or do I have to have a limited company? I assume any one can 'be a trader'?

I would imagine as long as you don't drive it anywhere you would be ok as if you did insurance would be a problem as you wouldn't most probably be covered.

Not quite sure how that helps you?? When you fill out the Yellow section the trader is supposed to keep the rest.. If you send of the yellow section the DVLA wont send you a new V5
