BUT, what happens if the bloke turns up and demands bike or his cash back. After all, the money has been sent....and more to the point has it been spent!

Then there is the possibility of what happens if it gets damaged or even worse stolen before the chap has collected it.

Hit him with a storage bill.. which is expensive enough to make him leave it.

Deduct the monies paid as storage charges and re-apply for a new v5.The time scale is so large you are within your rights to reposses the vehicle as your property due to the failings of the purchaser in upholding their side of the agreement.
OMO.
Worst case scenario--They appear to collect the bike and you give them their money back,just don't spend it[monies already paid] when you sell the bike second time around.

From CAB

Quote:

If you are in possession of another person’s goods you can sell them if they remain uncollected, as long as:-

the original owner is responsible for collecting the goods. The goods cannot be sold if it is your responsibility to return them; and
any money received from the sale is returned to the original owner or, if this is not possible, kept on account for them. The owner only loses their right to the money after six years; and
you follow the correct procedure.

Looks like a bit of a minefield especially as it was for export. If it was ebay then you may be able to get advice from them, otherwise I'd contact CAB

Typical CAB only giving out half the information. The main sticking point in this scenario then is the fact the money is no longer there?

Well the money is there kind of, just in the shape of a focus st170

How about selling it again? Leave the cash in the bank for when he finally contacts again to say he wants to pick it up. At least you wont have the worry of having to look after it for god knows when.
