runningman1 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Trying to avoid the debt collectors yeah? I'm not sure, have a Google. I would be surprised if a child could acquire assets like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin6 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 A child cannot sign a legal document, this includes a V5C. So no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin6 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Having said that the DVLA will not check the age of the applicant, so it is possible to register. However this is purely at your own risk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECCOnoob Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Why would you want it in a 12 year old's name then? What were they going to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biotechpete Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I think if a child wanted to own a vehicle it could be held in trust like other investments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
