Me too. Hope they don't catch up. 
A bit of slapstick never hurt anyone.

I've had this problem as well. I phoned the DVLA up and explained the situation - my donor had been scrapped but the scrappers obviously
hadn't sent off the reg docs so the DVLA still thought it was alive and well and living on my drive.
Once I explained it I was surprised how accommodating they were, they changed their records and cancelled my fine. Just goes to show that there are
still some people out there that realise not everything is black and white and occasionally people make mistakes! I may have just caught the person on
a good day but worth a try none the less...

my problem is that if i ring up (i have about 4 'lost' cars registered to me) i will incur more wrath.
like a kid not asking his parents if he can go out in case they say no!
