Quick question.
I have bought a private plate and have the certificate.
It says to post it to your local DVLA office with the MOT and V5 then they will send you a new V5, MOT and Tax Disc.
Question is, if i go direct to the office, will they do it there and then so i can put the plate on straight away?
Thanks
Mike

nope :smiley: not anymore
but they will check everything is in order and it gets processed a bit quicker :smiley:
just check they arent on strike the day you plan to go. :whistle: as loads of offices are faced with closure soon

Okey doke. I will take a look before i go as its a bit of a trek.
I was hoping that they didn't advertise they can do it on the spot to save them some work.
Damn!
Do you have to put it on the day you receive the paperwork back? Or is there some leeway on both number plates?

and when you do, you bend over and get bummed the admin fee by your insurance :rolleyes: :lipsrsealed:

Never gets that complicated!
Luckily my insurance is up in about 2-3 weeks. So if it all goes right i could combine the two! Once i haggle somebody down to a reasonable sum for insurance.

Last time i did it i took all the info to the local office and they gave me a form which i then took to halfords so they could make up the plates on the same day.(mind you that was about 10 years ago).

I did mine 18mths ago over the counter, that was in Bournemouth! No probs apart from the arrogant clerk he was a right nark

Had my private plate since I was 18, and it's been transferred onto all of my golfs listed in my sig. £80 transfer fee each time though :undecided: Always best to go to the main office to get it sorted, as if there are ANY errors in the paperwork, it'll get sent back unprocessed! Not heard of all these closures people are referring to, but the office in Peterborough have been spot on everytime! :smiley:
