Registration transfer question

[Alfahorn]

I bought a car last September which already had a private plate on it, which came with the car. I know want to put my one of my own plates on the car, however do I need to put the current reg on rentention first? It's not a great number and I've no desire to keep it.

You don't have to, no.

result thanks.

Do the DVLA still offer a same day service for plates on retention?

[Rawwr]

At the local branches? Not too sure, I know they did last time I did mine (2006).

A better idea might be to put it on retention and then sell it to the first spacker who rolls up with the readies for it.

Can't be ar$ed. Already got 2 plates on retention, don't want another one. I really don't think the plate is worth putting on retention to be honest. I was thinking more about how long it takes to assign a plate on retention to the car.

BTW, nice shed!

Is it worth selling the reg?

I'd say no, but try running it through Upstart's Plate valuation

I'd take whatever that plate valuer says with a very large pinch of salt, it is basically complete bks. Chuck the plate up on ebay for a couple of hundred quid, somebody will buy it and it contributes towards your road tax for the year.
