Morning chaps,

Just a quick question as I haven't done this before..

Car is going up for sale next week, thought it would be prudent to get the original plate back on and the current on retention.

I was just checking the DVLA website and it says I can put it back on retention for £80 which is fine, but it's literally going to be for a few days before I apply for it to go on the new vehicle.

As tight as I am, I was thinking whether the cheaper option would be to transfer it to my second vehicle in the meantime, but I'm not sure if that has a cost attributed to it also?

Anyone who's done this previously got any insights to share?

Thanks.

M
