Got K21 CAR on my little fiesta runabout, is there anyway of having this replaced with an age related substute and maybe if there is a way of having this on my MK Indy when its ready?

4.How do I transfer my registration number?
To transfer a registration number form one vehicle to another you will need to complete form V317 that is available from a DVLA Local Office. This form will explain what you need to do before the number can be transferred. If you require further information, please contact your nearest DVLA Local Office.

5. How do I retain my registration number as I have not got another vehicle to transfer the number to?
To place a vehicle registration number on hold you will need to complete form V778/1 that is available from a DVLA Local Office. The form will explain what you need to do before the number can be retained. If you require further information please contact your nearest DVLA Local Office.

I also think your vehicles need to be MoT's and Taxed (or Sorn'd) to put it on a retention certificate.

Also not sure if you can change the age related one the DVLA give you for the Locost. Check this out, as I am not too sure.

If you get a 'K' or newer for your Indy you could transfer it but if your donor is older you will be stuck with the year off that.

As Pete says, only if you get a plate for your Indy K or newer !

So if you had a G reg sierra donor (or something) then thats older than K so not allowed

Cheers guys!

Will look further into it, thought it might look good, K CAR number plate on a Kit car?

Would be better if i could have a new one registered in milton keynes and get a MK05 --- plate

but then youd look like you came from milton keynes!!!!




except thats a manchester code

i thought most standard plates were counted as non transferable? or have i missed the point?

You can't transfer to or from a Q plate, everything else is ok so long as you put it on something of the same age or older.

Cheers

Also forgot to mention:

You cant make a car look newer than it is with a reg plate.

ie a G reg car can have any reg upto G, but not H,J,k, L, etc etc

So you will want a donor with a K or later plate. for your K reg.
