Dear Mr William-Baker
Thank you for your further request for information under the Freedom of Information Act. Your request for information falls within the Agency+IBk-s day to day business and your request is therefore treated as +IBg-Business as Usual+IBk.
DVLA does not hold any information on Allodial titles.
The register maintained by DVLA is based on vehicles and their keepers - the +IBg-registered keepers+IBk, who are responsible for the use and licensing of vehicles on the roads.
There is clearly a distinction between a register for +IBg-owners+IBk of vehicles and a register for +IBg-keepers+IBk of vehicles. DVLA+IBk-s register is not a register of legal title to vehicles.
The register held at DVLA is essentially maintained to assist in revenue collection, road safety and law enforcement generally. It is clearly essential for all these purposes that the register shows the people in possession of vehicles and responsible for their day to day use on the road. For this reason the law requires keepers to notify the DVLA as they acquire and dispose of vehicles and Vehicle Registration Certificates (V5C) are issued to them to help maintain this process.
V5Cs are not documents of legal title or proof of ownership. There is a prominent note on the certificate to makes it clear that the registered keeper is not necessarily a vehicles legal owner and the fact a certificate is issued does not affect the legal ownership of a vehicle.
Further information on how to ensure that you may drive, use or keep your vehicle legally in on UK roads, and on obtaining the necessary documents to do so can be found at www.direct.gov.uk/motoring.
