Sell Car - Keep Private Plate
Asking for my neighbour. He has a cherished number plate that he wishes to transfer to his next vehicle. He knows how to do that.
He doesn't know how to get a new number plate for the car he wants to sell.
I've looked online but it is as clear as mud.
Does anyone have a simple, straightforward answer?

Some confusion going on here. There is no fee to 'retain the rights to the original plate for 10 years' There is an £80 transfer fee to change the plate to a private one but 'The vehicle’s original registration number is usually reassigned to it automatically when you take off a private number'

We have just done this online took off private reg on retention dvla then send you new registration certificate plus a form to take to get new plates made with the the reg they have given you. But take care when ou do it online your number is removed almost right away so cannot run car until you get new plates also remember to change insurance to new number
