Good luck with it, do you think you will need to get it trailored for inspection or does this not apply when its been sorn'd

not sure they keep banging on about the local office make the decisions and they have discretionary powers..... :-/

they also told me they are sympathetic and making this easier  

From the sounds of it its all up in the air, hope it goes your way

You would have thought there would be some kind of procedure for this type of thing only you can guarantee its happened before.

I thought it was something exciting like

MV 6

or

X25CDX
X20XEV

The car has to be MOT'ed and taxed to transfer a number plate. I am having the same problem at the moment.

talk nice to your local office - they do have a bit of scope here as i have found out, but no guarantees....

As for exciting number plate no but it has high sentimental value to her indoors so who am i to disagree ( if i want fed )

I managed to pick up "V6 DOA" recently off the DVLA web site ... funny if you know what DOA means and have a sick sense of humour !!!

purchase price included the transfer fee, was a pretty easy transition from old to new number plate really ...

Suitable for a V6 Omega hearse!

An update and conclusion - which may assist others in this tricky area

H5GGL is now legal and belongs to my 2000 MV6.

Transfer of this cherished number plate is complete and cost £80

This was despite the fact the donor car was sorn`ed and sold to me without MOT.

I STRONGLY suggest if you ever need to deal with the dvla you deal personally and with a local office - Glasgow were brilliant throughout this transfer. In a nutshell i went in person with all the documents and my story about scrapping the car last wednesday ( along with payment) and about an hour ago went back as agreed and was handed a brown envelope with my new car tax, my new v5 , and everything else.

How about SCO and a Saltire?  

Not too much different from the St Georges Cross and ENG, Dragon and Cymru etc?
