Dang, I came to post my ultra lean address from years ago, but wish I had known this! PO 1234 NY, NY 10010
Do you think removing all instances if NY would have still got the mail delivered? 10010 is NY in NY.

I have lost a V5C before. You can actually order a 'duplicate' logbook with just the vehicle registration number, VIN and registered keeper address: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-log-book You can pay by credit/debit card.

Might work. Maybe I should go and parcel up some dogshit and try it.
If you write to the DVLA (driver and vehicle licensing agency) they have various individual postcodes for different departments Eg SA99 1AR is vehicle customer services The whole of SA99 I'd dedicated to the DVLA, so simply SA99 on an envelope would probably get there, although written just DVLA would probably do that same.
Tangentially related, but I'm ordering a vehicle logbook from the DVLA at the moment. I'm a millennial/Gen-Z straddler, so it's been a real blast from the past-I-never-had. I need to pay for my tax online. In order to do that, I need a number which is found in my logbook (V5C), which I've lost. Can I do that online? Nope. To order a new log book, I need to fill out a V62 form and post it to the DVLA, along with a che…
