Does anyone know if the owner of the vehicle has to do the Annual Road Tax/ Insurance renewal or if they have to sign anything or if anybody can do it.

Many thanks

Anyone can do it, round my way the local "post office" shops all offer service.

Upnotover

Many thanks for that.

As mentioned, anyone can do it for you. For several years I used to hand the documents over to someone at work and they would do it for me. I do it myself now as I have the procedure down and the department is very close to where I live.

//edit - just don't forget you need to have proof you have paid your compulsory insurance and if the car is over 7 years old a vehicle check needs done.

I think the Post Office levies a Small Fee . But being a Lazy..........
