You can apply for a new one from the DVLA. I think you need the previous owners details, as they'll write to them and ask is they still have the car. Easy sorted though, think it costs around £19.

Erm, i think you'll find it is your fault, cause your not legally allowed to buy a car without the V5 logbook being present.
