that your motorhome has become beyond
economic repair and should be disposed of.
Please ensure that you comply with the end
of life vehicle legislation and take it to an
authorised treatment facility where it will be
properly dealt with to minimise any negative
environmental impact. The transaction will be
logged at the DVLA, identifying that you are
no longer the owner of the vehicle.
