russp 10 Posted April 24, 2015 Hi everyone. I am looking for some advice please. I don't very often take part exchanges and when I do they rarely involve removing a customers private registration plate. The last one I did was when the DVLA local offices still existed and I just told them what I wanted and they did it. So, I have sold a vehicle that is being collected on Tuesday. I am also taking the customers part exchange vehicle. The customer wants the priavte plate off his old car putting onto his new car. A simple procedure for someone with both V5's in their name but what is the easiest way of me sorting this out for him? I am assuming I will have to send both V5's off on the customers behalf and then once the customer has both V5's returned with correct registrations allocated, he can send me the V5 for the p/x? Any guidance would be much appreciated. Many thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 164 Posted April 24, 2015 Yes it's easy send of both V5's with appropriate V317 https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/409911/V317_211114.pdf You used to send of the MOT certificate as well but not anymore. £80 FEE wait for V5's to come back, takes a week. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jamslug 91 Posted April 30, 2015 Umesh was saying on another post that you can actually do it online now. If you do it online, let me know how you get on. James Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Entwistle 96 Posted May 3, 2015 i've heard a few dealers witholding a small amount on the PX until they get the v5 back, too many customers not sending in the v5 once the plate change has gone through... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
