Transfer registration when selling a car
Discussion
Hi, advice appreciated.
Can I fill out the V317 and send them the V5 with the new owner filled in.
Give the new owner the V5C. They can drive the car on my personal plate until a new one comes through.
I will be sending off payment and the V5 with my name filled out on the form.
Hopefully they will assign the mark to my new car(already purchsed) and send the new owner a new V5 and reg documents?
Cheers.

Safe and std way if you have already bought the new car is to send all the relevant docs to DVLA to have the plate transferred from old car to new and to have the original/previous reg restored to your old car.Can I fill out the V317 and send them the V5 with the new owner filled in.

Anything else has risk.
They won't end up owning your plate, but when you buy the car one half of the V317 does need to be filled in by the new keeper. You'll need to retain their V5C/2 and MOT cert to send off to the DVLA, along with a V62 that you have both completed. The new owner can keep the V5/C as proof of ownership if they really want.
Just did this myself and it only took a couple of weeks. Retention is £105 and the transfer fee is only £80 so worth getting someone to fill in a couple of forms for £25.

Some people want to save £25 by going car to car but I know someone came a cropper when the new owner wouldn't sign the document.
Only safe way is to take it off first but the problem is, because it all has to go to Swansea now, that if you are part-exing it, you have no V5C. Dealers can get twitchy about it.

Agreed, sort your admin first, anything else is a ballache for you and will put off buyers when selling your car. Then sell the old car
