I have just got a Reply from Dealer and he says most cars are kept at Eden Docks for a few weeks, so probably looking Mid December, which is fine and will get 2017 Plate ...

Unless you register it for March 1st 2017 or later, you won't get a 2017 plate. Emden docks hold-up usually depends on how much shipping traffic there is. As a Teessider, it should be coming to Port of Tyne if you ordered locally, it might only be there in Emden a week due to the constant traffic between Emden and Tyne to pick up Sunderland built Nissans and drop them off in the Netherlands on the way back to Emden. 3 Days in Tyne before heading to the dealership is the norm for the Lookers and Pulman North East branches.

He probably meant a 2017 reg date so it will be a 2017/66 rather than 2016/66.
Only benefit really is if you sell to territories that use the year on the reg like Republic of Ireland.
In the UK most people think 2017/66 or 2014/63 or 2011/60 etc is a typo
