[rich clarke]

Rich, is your present plate a personalised number?

If not, and it is the number which was originally issued to your car, the number is held by the DVLA until such time as you sell the car, when it goes back on. It is never used on any other car, so hang on to your number plates as they could go back on if you sell the car sometime.

If your present plate is a personalised number, then as someone else said, it would have to be put on to a retention certificate at a cost of £25 per year.

found TUR80E for sale for when ive had the conversion

GR-No, my current plate is not a personalised one, its just the one issued with the car.

The thing is my new number plate will say C110 RC (CLIO RC) which will be no use to me if I get a different car, usless its another clio. So Ill probably just let DVLA have my old one and I sell my personalised one with my car when I sell it.

Do you think thats a good idea or should I still ask to keep my old plate anyway?

Cheers
Rich

GR-Ive just read what you wrote again.
Do you mean the DVLA dont give my old plate to anyone else and I dontt have to pay them for not giving it away?
And your saying I should keep my old plates so I can screw them back on when I sell it?

S1MON Sold for £59,000 in 1999 and
S11MON for £17,200 in 2000.

If youve got an unusual first name or surname then its often cheaper cause they dont pick up on them.

makes S111 ONF, nicely spaced to say
S1MON F look like a bargain :-)

£399 form dvla..

you have to think of it as a mod

think about it..


all that nice colur coding etc.. and law sez u must stick a bloody gurt ugly piece of lettered plastic on it.. in white and bloody yellow.. of all colours !.

so, when it dont look like the norm it is different and personal.

mine is pretty obvious, but even if not.. it dont matter.. iften symetry of spacing can improve the whole aestehic.

Cheaper solution - keep your existing number plate and change your name by deed-poll to match it http://www.cliosport.net/images/OldBBS/9.gif[/IMG]]

Rich, your original number will not be used on another car, if you sell your car in the future with its personalised plate, the original number will still be held unused at the DVLA (so they told me a while ago when I was changing my number).

If your number is interesting, it might be more profitable for you to sell it separately and put your original number back on your car, especially if a dealer buys it!

If in the future you buy another Clio, you will probably want to transfer your personal number to your new car, then your present car will be re-allocated the original number.

[GR7]

Captain, couldnt you get the number CAP7N and put a black nut between the 7 and the N (CAP7N)!!

[Captain Slarty]
