hi nice reg plate, i have a couple questions on how it all works if you dont mind helping me out please, i purchased a private plate from dvla website on tuesday received my entitlement form on friday the v750 now im confused on what i need to do, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Complete the entitlement form as required, attach the necessary documentation from memory; registration document. MOT and return all to DVLA Registrations SA99 

 

The full address and department will be within the V750 document.

 

They quote 14days for it all to be processed however, I was one of the fortunate ones which was returned sooner.

Officially you would require the log book to obtain a new set of plates to establish proof of ownership etc. The DVLA will also supply you with a certificate to take along to the likes of Halfrauds to have them made however, we all know or are aware of certain companies advertising on eBay and the likes that will make your plates up under the pretence of show plates etc. Mine were made and delivered prior to receiving the documentation back.

I got my personal reg and documents back from DVLA last week. When you get all the stuff back (took just under two weeks for mine) it surprisingly didnt give a date that the new plates starts from just states to put the new ones on as soon as possible. I already got the plates made off of one of the many plate sellers on eBay without needing to send them any documents

If you read the documentation attached it would normally state that the new registration should be attached to the vehicle by a given date so the above with all due respect may be a little ambiguous

Just re-read the letter. And no date...

That  is unusual Martin, I've done it many times and it normally comes back with you have until the 30th or 31st of nearest month end to affix the new registration to your vehicle. Hope I did not offend in my earlier comment

Not at all I thought it was strange myself. As soon as the I got the letter the plates went on anyway and a call to the insurance company and I was legal. I guess most people also want them on pretty quick to.

I think legally or not most would have purchased the plates in readiness for the returned documents Martin, I usually do when sending the application off to the DVLA. There are so many company's that will make them up for you under the pretence of show plates.

 

The strange thing is whenever I am selling or trading in my car and transfer my personal plate KEN 33Y they always assign the original plate back so I've always kept them in readiness.
