Ask the owner for the engineers report? I got one which said what category it was.

Other than that, HPI check I guess.

Ah well just paid the £20 for a complete HPI, just curious as to why I couldn't tax it online. Thought it might be Cat B but turns out its only Cat D.

Weird how I can't tax it online though.

Unfortunately, because of the tax class of the vehicle or recent changes to the vehicle record, you are currently unable to apply for a tax disc or declare SORN using this service.

Your insurers didn't ask for you to re-MOT it?

Edit: To show that bike is roadworthy after the writing off I mean. Dunno how this would affect the DVLA and being able to tax it though...

I'd hope that's just because it was sold to a 'dealer'.

There's no chance that it was reported to the DVLA as 'scrapped' was it? Thinking

Not sure.

I have the full V5, so it hasn't been sent off.

It isn't in my name... yet.

Report is attached

All my bikes are write offs though. I tax everything online. I don't care about the disc not arriving, I just want it taxed before DVLA invoke the arse rape.
