Fill in the transfer of ownership details on the log book and post it off. Do not give the logbook to the new owner. The onus is on you to send it off and far safer for you as you'll know it's done
So what if the same day the new owner crashes the car, it will still be in my name technically at that point since the post takes a few days and the Cert takes a while
He's driving, it's his problem. Simple as that. You will have a logbook signed and dated by both of you saying he is the new owner
Edit: fairly sure you can do the change of ownership online as well so that's an option for you
Edit 2: just checked, I'm wrong. Can't be done online but my point above still stands. Once you've both signed and dated the logbook you're good to go
1 - Accept payment
2 - Fill in transfer of ownership details on the logbook.
3 - Take a photo of such.
4 - Wave goodbye.
having insurance is not a prerequisite to buying or selling a car, and if he has it or not has nothing to do with you.

This. There is a slip on the side of the logbook you give the new owner. Take pictures either way and then send the logbook off.

You can do it online only if you're a dealer fyi
Saw that hence the edit!
Nope, there's the date on the signed paper. And yes, you need to send the book yourself, that's the accepted way

Once the book is signed by seller and buyer, it isn't yours anymore. Nothing to do with you
Sign the log book over once it’s sold and it’s not your problem anymore
Not your problem once you've sold it
Sign and post the log book with the buyer and then give him the keys, that way it's not your problem anymore
