Selling car without private plate.

I may sell my car privately but it has a p/p on it that I want to keep and transfer on to an other car. Anyone know what the procedure is on transferring the plate to my new car (2nd hand) when I get it and who sorts the plates out for the old car. Is there the =A380 reg fee & who pays? I think it maybe less hassle if I was to p/ex my car and let the dealer sort it out as I may buy from a dealer & not private all depends on what they give for my old car TIA.

It'll get an age-related plate.

Ummm, you do... Who else would?

You'll still pay the £80... plus you'll be paying for the dealer to take the hassle.

Obviously though buying from a dealer, you could probably get that in the deal... In fact, let's face it, you could heh.

Still going to come out of your pocket, though, because the dealer's going to factor it into the "cost-to-change", whether he does it on the PX value or the sale price he agrees to.

IANAL etc, but i'm sure I remember someone else letting a dealer "sort it out" - the dealer kept it !

As soon as you sign the docs for the sale, they own the car - including registration.

It was covered on uk.legal about 18-24 months ago IIRC !
