registration documents

got my stilo today...and i love it nuff said.

I dont seem to have the normal little green new keeper slip in my folder, should the dealer have given me this? or has this changed. He did mention something about me being sent out the full documents in the next few weeks from the dvla. Is this normal?

I'll be calling the dealer anyway as i dont seem to have the "CODE card" mentioned in the manual. Or the new vehicle identification card which was mentioned in the aftercare booklet.

The car was pre-registered so i think it is technically a new car. I only have experience buying a used car in the past.

Re: registration documents

yep you should have got green bit of v5, but not a code card they dont always get given out in the uk

I do have part of the v5 but not the green part, i'll give the dealer a call tomorrow. The dvla should be sending me out full papers tho, am i right?

I didn't get a code card, dealer said its held by Fiat UK. My V5 stuff arrived in the post after a week & my AA/3rd yr warranty card arrived after a month.

Did have radio code sticker stuck on dash though!

I purchased my CODE card through the local dealership's parts department. Only cost a couple of quid, and I keep it in my wallet [not the car itself].

Glad you got the car

You should get the full registration documents in the post from the DVLA, normally takes a couple of weeks.

I was told by the dealer that the 54 onwards dont have a code card, fiat are still using the old manual, a code card is no longer required. I think it may be tied into the key code system now. Guess i'll find out when the battery needs to be disconnected.

Appart from that its a great car, granted i am just getting comfortable driving it now, it has taken a bit of getting used to from my fiesta. Still not looking forward to my first tight reverse park in the city much, but hey it feels longer than it is. I reversed up to my neighbours car and i thought i was really close....still had a few feet to spare. Just gonna take a little bit of getting used to.

No reversing sensor, or city parking?
