I'm selling the private plate on my car because it's coming home with me to Ireland in a few months.
So I got a quote from the DVLA for Ԛ£400, I knew it wasn't worth lots so I thought, what the hell - it has to go anyway.
I just looked at their regtransfers site and it was on there for Ԛ£750, the gits :evil:
Another tidy profit for the DVLA.

They sell 'on behalf' of clients... sometimes.

Dom,you can register your plates with as many places as you can find,just try and find the one that takes the smallest cuts.
Elite Registrations,based in Devizes were quite good.
