H13VYY 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 about 150-200? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yeah thats what i was thinkin... pretty cool for someone with a VRT :) Hopefully it will sell... how much is it to buy a standard replacement registration off the DVLA as im not up with all this plate swapping...

H13VYY 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 i think once you go to dvla and get your plate taken off or transferred, they you'l get a new certificate with you original number plate on there which you take to your local number plate supplier to gets them made for you. It costs £105 just to take the plate off or £80 to transfer it. I think thats the process anyway. can't really remember as its been so long since i did it. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 but that G308 VRT is the original plate.. its not a personalised one.. its what the car came with... Link to post Share on other sites
H13VYY 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 oh is it.. you can't sell an original plate can you? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 i dunno... lol. Link to post Share on other sites
H13VYY 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 somebody else might know. what plate you planning on running the car on then if you are able to sell it? assuming you are able to sell it then there is no standard replacement. you would have to purchase a personalised plate and put it on which in the end would still cost a fair considering you would have to pay the fees and plus get the plates made.

hvr6 88 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 give the DVLA a call hun Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 to be honest, i was thinking i could just get a new plate off the dvla... like just a bog standard any old plate if you know what i mean... but if its going to be hassle i wont worry... just thought if i could do it and earn some money out of it then it may be worth it..

thegoth 5 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 what ya getting? Anything other than a dub on a G wont last much longer so you can the plate just before you scrap the car ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
H13VYY 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 the cheapest plate you could probably get from dvla would be around £50 but even then you would end up spending over £100 by the time its on your car.give them a call just to confirm though. Link to post Share on other sites

laurenceh 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 You need to loot at the reg document, that will state if the regestration can be removed. Should say transferable or non transferable. For some reason a lot og origionally assigned reg's can't be removed but you might be lucky. As far as costs go I can ask next week for you if ya like?? I need to go to chelmsford DVLA and get my reg put onto retention AGAIN!!! Link to post Share on other sites

laurenceh 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 I KNOW WHAT IT IS!!!As far as VRT's being for men - I wouldn't be so sure! Lol from what I've seen of Nats driving on the road she's more of a nut nut than me (and that's saying something) lol Link to post Share on other sites
gary.scales 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 I am pretty confident that if a car has a plate attached to it from new, you are unable to transfer it to another car. You are however, are allowed to buy a personalised plate and put it on a car, and then transfer or sell that one, but no the original. The prices B4DVr said above are about right. hope this helps!

There's a lot of nutty women out there who can drive and will make the most of a turbod vr... me being one of them... :) and thanks for the glowing character reference Laurence!!

jims13 6 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 the car your taking the plate off has to be mot'd, its costs 80 quid to stick it on retention , but that only last for 2 years.. plate transfer fee is around 110 quid, and if your taking it off a car they will reasign you a new plate , tax disc and number plates.. shame its not g450 vrt, or i may have had it Link to post Share on other sites
mad4it 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 you can sell the plate and get a new one not sure how much it is but the new buyer cant sell it on it has to stay with that car he puts it on so im told give the dvla a ring and see what thay say Link to post Share on other sites
