to be fair, because i obviously can't register the car in my name until im 17, the car is, by law, my mom's but no one needs to know.. but im guessing if i've got the log book, then the doc is with that
Who told you that?! If it's your car, you can register it in your name. Simple as that. You need to sort this out, now.

I once got a call from one of these places about a plate i had, I said no it wasnt for sale, asked how they got my number and plate details form etc, they said the DVLA, however i then asked what they got for it and I nearly fell off my chair….
so i sold up, made a few quid in it too…
Not saying what the plate was, but i bought from DVLA years ago for ?250, when they called me they said they had someone interested at ?1100, i ummed n aaarred a bit, left them stewing, they then called me back following day and said if i do deal today then I'd get ?1450, so i said yep…
shame i just blew the cash at the time tho…

I got my G60 *** plate fro quite silly low money a few months back, quite a lot less than ?300 to be exact
![:D](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images/ocf_emoticons/grin.png)
I have seen them change hands for ?500 before, guess you just have to be lucky and find one when nobody else wants one or happens to see it for a bargain
I doubt i will ever lose money on it

it's just one of those lucky things i suppose, my dad's done the same with an old corgi mini that he had… bought it for about ?15ish, then 18 months later, stuck it on eBay cos one went for about ?50, and it ended up at ?135 8O

Never knew that. Never too old to learn.Topoftherange said
The secretary of state OWNS all number plates and allows them to be displayed on a car
That car is registered to display that plate, nobody else can sell it, as a seller and buyer have to have the certificate of entitlement signed by both parties
there is also an ?80 transfer fee, and a ?25 fee for the buyer to pay to have the certificate of entitlement put in their name
If the plate is already displayed on a car and tranfered to another everything has to be taken to the local DVLA office Log books insurance, mot, tax disc for both doner and receiving car, and the doner then is issued an age related or its "original" reg (if it had one) and the plate cannot be displayed untill all the log books etc are changed into the new details
I recently changed my Corrado`s reg to a "private" one, because my plate was on retention, (not being displayed on a car) I recieved the certificate in the sellers name, filled my details in, sent it to dvla, recieved it back, signed it again, then sent it back to the seller, who signed it again to relinquish entitlement over to me! who then sent it back to me, i took it to the dvla office and they transfered all the paperwork into this reg and issued new tax disc, new mot and issued certificate so i could get the plates made
So dont sweat it, no one can sell your plate, its not as easy as that or people would sell A 1 and F 1 for 10`s of thousands every week!
