Can used car dealer put my plate on my new to me car?
Discussion
Looked around and cannot find a definitive answer to this question. I have my private plate on retention, I am going to collect my car on Monday - can the dealer whilst I'm there transfer ownership and do the private plate all at the same time?
He 'thinks' it is possible. I'm sure it is, what with everything being done online now. Have put private plats on cars easily in the past as I have done with the change of ownership.
Does anyone know if possible? Would just be nice to driveway with my new plate on it

It will work online if you use the name and address on the V5. But bear in mind you then lose the right to the plate if you end up not taking ownership of the car for some reason. The new V5 will, however go to that address.
To do it legitimately, you'll need to wait about three or four days for the V5 to arrive... They're really fast at the moment.
